Ombud to honour members of Canada’s Defence Community at the 23rd Liz Hoffman Memorial Commendation Ceremony
Message from the Ombud | 15 October 2024
I look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of members of Canada’s Defence community at the 23rd annual Liz Hoffman Memorial Commendation ceremony.
The Liz Hoffman Memorial Commendation recognizes those who have gone the extra mile and exceeded expectations in bringing about positive and lasting change to the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces.
Liz Hoffman was an investigator with the Ombudsman's Office who had a deeply rooted sense of fairness and was a tremendous force for positive change.
I am proud to announce this year’s recipients, who, like Liz, are dedicated to helping others and making a difference:
- Élise Vallée,
- Jenn McStravick, and
- The Natasha's Wood Foundation
The commendations ceremony will take place on Thursday 17 October 2024 at 10:00 a.m. EDT in Ottawa, Ontario.
Congratulations to these deserving members of our Defence community.
