The Connection is excited to start 2025 with some exciting news! Sarah Bassing-Sutton, who has served as The Connection’s Community Suicide Prevention Coordinator since 2020, has been named the new Executive Director of The Connection.

Sarah succeeds Beth Clay, who announced in December she had accepted a new position at United Way Fox Cities, after a decade of leading The Connection. Check out the news release below.

Sarah officially steps into her new role on Jan. 27. As such, the Jan. 9 member meeting has been canceled, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the March 13 member meeting. Our scheduled 2025 member meetings are detailed below, and we invite you to add them to your calendar!
