Charles Maynard, President and CEO
Providence Center for Counseling & Psychiatric Services
"In both projects, we found it extremely helpful,
working with Ed Marshall. In Ed, we found commitment and dedication and his capability was
superior. He was extremely helpful in zeroing in on the issues, and following through with
board and staff to complete this project. The Providence Center is much better off today
as a result of those efforts the ESC provided to us."
Ellen Garbarino, Executive Director
North Metropolitan Homemaker-Health Aide Service, Inc.
"Thank you again for your help during this time of
crisis in health care and the resulting impact on North Metropolitan. I only wish that we
had availed ourselves of your services earlier. Be assured that we will continue our
association with ESC."
Amy Ruth Nevis, Executive Director
Judge Baker Children's Center
"Judge Baker Children's Center has . . . completed
the diagnostic phase of a board development process with the support of two highly skilled
ESC consultants. We have already seen improvement in the functioning of our board, and
feel confident that we will successfully implement the action plan created by our
consultants."
Abdul Hussein, Executive Director
Somali Development Center
"Bob Ray helped us develop a three-year strategic
plan . . . for where we could go from here. Before, we would work on every crisis that was
brought to us. When Bob came here, we assessed the programs that we were doing to see what
kinds of things we could and what programs we could do referrals for . . .that relieved
the Somali Development Center because we were really overloaded with cases."
George F. Preston, Executive Director
Lowell Telecommunications Corporation
"The fact is that ESC in general, and the leadership of Ann Case in particular, helped us immensely in defining ourselves - both where we are and where we want to be - and thus, opened many doors of opportunity for us, ranging from our own fundraising initiatives to improving our programmatic services for the community of Lowell."
