Letter from the Executive Director

Newsletter, 2023 April, Letter from the Executive Director

We did it! We hit all our 2022 goals. And we are well on our way to a successful 2023. This success began by hosting an amazing Leaders Luncheon to End Overdose. Thank you all.
ย 
Thank you all for supporting the luncheon through your courageous participation. One of the most poignant moments for me was looking out from the stage at all of you who chose to stand alongside the 90-second speakers of impact and seeing justย how many of us are actually impacted by the opioid epidemic.ย 
ย 
Thank you to the leadership of our awardees: Rita Lowman and Linda McKinnon. Both have been instrumental in growing the number of leaders interested in and open to talking about our region’s behavioral health crisis. Join both Rita and Linda by applying to serve on Live Tampa Bayโ€™s Leadership Coalition.

And, finally, thank you all for supporting the luncheon through your attendance and your sponsorships. We were deeply touched by the turnout; the luncheon was completely sold out, and we have secured an even larger venue for next year! Please be sure to mark your calendars forย March 15, 2024.

As we begin our work for 2023, please consider attending one of our committees, joining our Foundersโ€™ Table, or contributing to our ongoing efforts to push forward our priorities for 2023.

Yours in service,

Jennifer Webb, Executive Director
