Congratulations to Communitas volunteer Serena Lopes!

  |  

A big congratulations to long time Communitas volunteer Serena Lopes who was recently awarded the Prix Claude-Masson for young volunteers for the region of Montreal. Serena was awarded the prize in part due to her volunteer work with Communitas supporting prisoners and former prisoners on the inside and the outside. Serena’s citation (you can read the full text HERE) also notes the fantastic work she does by providing care for children while their parents appear at Youth Court. We’re proud to have exemplary community-minded volunteers like Serena working with us as we build better lives by helping prisoners and former prisoners meet the challenges of reintegration!
