Chapter Director – Natalie Vanderlaan
Natalie is a wife and mom to three children and fosters through the Hamilton Children’s Aid Society. When she first heard of Safe Families Canada, she felt a strong tug on her heart to be involved, knowing personally of birth parents who maybe would not have been separated from their children had they had some support. Moving from the Steering Committee, to Assistant Director and now Chapter Director, her hands and heart are open to how God will lead. She is passionate about this ministry and seeing families safe and strong together. She has seen the Circle of Support model in action over and over, and loves how beautiful it is when each member is using their gifts and capacities to support and strengthen a family unit.
We are always in need of more volunteers, so please connect with me today if you, too, feel that tug on your heart!
