DG Elise Hereth: December 2023 Visit
Our own Elise Hereth presented to our club in her capacity as District Governor. 
 
She highlighted the Rotary International Presidential Initiative of Mental Health and Well-being. President Gordan McInally’s theme for the year is to “Create Hope in the World”.
 
Elise shared the story of her family’s mental health journey. From her experience, Elise backs the Rotary Action Group for Mental Health Initiatives. This group is focused on helping communities raise awareness and break the stigma surrounding mental health. This will help improve access to services, address insurance barriers, and provide mentors to help people navigate the services.

Elise also shared an update on Rotary’s fight against Polio. Worldwide, there are nine cases left that are spread between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Once the disease is expelled, a focus will be vaccine education as a preventive measure.
DG Elise receives a Paul Harris Fellow during her visit to her home club.
