Director
Cleta enjoyed a career as a lawyer, specializing in administrative and criminal law. Helping ordinary people find fairness and justice through the Office of the Ombudsman, the criminal courts and the BC Review Board was impactful work that broadened her skills and curiosity.
At the same time and to this day she is engaged in community volunteerism, activism and local politics in Vancouver. It’s all about service. Cleta is a past President of the University Women’s Club of Vancouver, a past President of MOSAIC, a former director of YWCA Metro Vancouver and the Canadian Women’s Foundation and currently President of TEAM for a Livable Vancouver.
Cleta believes there should be beauty and fun in life as well. So she sings in the Good Noise Vancouver Gospel Choir and walks the local parks and beaches whenever she gets the chance.
