We’ve recently had a couple of organizational updates at SCP that we’d like to share.

Joanne Norris, Director of Social Returns, has recently moved to Vancouver to set-up an SCP office on the west coast. Originally from Vancouver, Joanne has decided to move back to where the weather’s nicer so that she can be closer to her family. Joanne will continue in her current role, as well as provide increased support for SCP’s investments in BC and Alberta.

Chris Crowell, former Director of Investments, recently left SCP to run for the Liberal Part of Canada nomination in his hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia. Now that Chris’ passion for social change has extended into the political realm, we wish him the best of luck in seeking the nomination and in his future endeavours.
