Congratulations!

Congratulations to Helen Rusich, who has been accepted as one of the participants in the Max Bell Public Policy Training Institute over the
year ahead. The program offers a rich opportunity to learn in a small group from some key leaders in Alberta who know a lot about how public
policy is developed and how it can be influenced.
