Our Program Administrators
Each program has one person in charge of it. If you’re looking for specific information about one of our programs the administrator is typically the best person to talk to.
Parking Permit Program
Betty has been our parking permit coordinator for longer than anyone (including her) can remember but best guess is 25 years. She started off as a computer school student (yes! We had computer school even back then!) then started to volunteer, moved into a part time position and then became NDRC’s first full time employee!
Information and Resource Referral Program
Allison started in 2018 as the Computer School Coordinator. Over the years she has become passionate about the Information and Resource side of things, signing up for a course to learn as much as she could about the disability application process in this country and province. She now helps 80+ people a month, answering questions, finding resources in the community, and applying for CPPD or PWD or other application forms. She also has recently taken on advocacy work in the form of tenancy dispute resoloution.
Computer and Technology Program
Marie joined NDRC in 2019 part time while finishing her Bachelor of Business Administration. Originally fulfilling the role of 1 on 1 instructor and public relations assitant, she has since moved on to Computer School Administrator as well as resident IT tech, website developer and Newsletter Editor. “The Swiss Army Knife of NDRC” became NDRC’s second full time employee.
