This month we're excited to shine the spotlight on Lekshmi, our amazing Legal Assistant who joined the HPCAS team 11 months ago!
What makes Lekshmi passionate about her work? "I love my job because it allows me to be a part of work that supports children and families. Even behind… the scenes, it feels meaningful to contribute to something bigger than myself."
"I enjoy my role as it constantly challenges me to learn and grow, professionally and personally. Every day is different and I'm always gaining new skills," Lekshmi shares.
When she's not busy supporting our legal team, Lekshmi loves spending time in the kitchen trying out new recipes or getting lost in a captivating fiction novel.
Thank you, Lekshmi, for everything you bring to our team and the families we serve. Your dedication to our mission makes such a difference! 💚

This February marks 30 years of Black History Month in Canada. This year's theme, "Honouring Black Brilliance Across Generations," celebrates the leadership, creativity and resilience of Black Canadians who have shaped our communities from past to present.
While we honour …these incredible contributions, we also acknowledge the ongoing work needed to dismantle systemic barriers and anti-Black racism.
