Celebrating the Legacy of John Feehan

It was an honor to join the YWCA Greater Newburyport in celebrating the remarkable legacy of John Feehan, who has led the organization with vision and dedication for the past 16 years as Executive Director.

Under John’s leadership, the YWCA strengthened its programs, expanded its reach, and continued to be a vital resource for affordable housing, childcare, and community support.

His commitment has left an enduring mark on Greater Newburyport and the larger region, and it was a privilege to present him with an official Senate citation in recognition of his service.

Congratulations also to Kate Slater, the new Executive Director, who will carry this important mission forward.

The YWCA Greater Newburyport is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
