Rhonda commenced working for CatholicCare Sandhurst on 13 June 2017 in the position of Senior Manager Practice and Service Outcomes. In October 2018 she transitioned into the role of Director CatholicCare Sandhurst after successfully applying for the position.
Rhonda was the first female Director ever appointed to the role in CatholicCare Sandhurst’s 32-year history.
She has made a significant contribution to the development and delivery of programs offered by CatholicCare, and her passion for supporting local community saw her lead a homelessness forum in Shepparton to address the need for increased social housing in the area.
Rhonda is a voluntary and honorary member with a range of community organisations such as Zonta, and she has embedded and strengthened relations with key regional and sector partners including La Trobe University, Loddon Campaspe Multicultural Services, local TAFE institutes, and the Centre for Non-Violence.
She also became a Board Director for the Catholic Education Sandhurst SCECEC incorporated entity in 2020.
Rhonda has mentored and guided our regional service delivery and program operations during 18 months of remote working and lockdowns. She oversaw CCS and its programs achieve outstanding audit outcomes when undertaking Quality, Finance, and other reviews.
Rhonda has been a caring, thoughtful, and respectful Director throughout her time at CatholicCare Sandhurst and CatholicCare Victoria, including her integrity and pursuit of the purpose and values of the organisation - in particular, the change of culture and attitude she brought as Executive Director.
We wish Rhonda all the very best in her retirement, and we thank her for her years of dedication to supporting our team, programs, and our community at large.
