Focus Testing: My Personal Journey
"The Community Capacity Building Committee consists of representatives from each provincial/territorial breast cancer network who is receiving funds via the community capacity building component of the Canadian Breast Cancer Initiative, Population Health Fund, Health Canada. This committee works collaboratively to gather national perspectives, share information, identify national issues and priorities, and advise on strategic directions related to breast cancer information and support in Canada."
"The Quaich Inc. was hired in February 2004 by a working group of the CCBC which was formed to address the gap of resources available for persons diagnosed and living with advanced breast cancer. A navigational guide has been created and set to launch in June 2005. The Quaich has been instrumental in moving this project from a visionary stage to completion. The leadership and experience with which Patsy provides our committee has taken us through many challenges in respect to vision, strategic planning, testing and evaluation. Patsy demonstrates strong facilitation skills, is well prepared, and thorough. Patsy and the staff of the Quaich Inc. exemplify professionalism and compassion with the delicacy of the topic."
