In context of our history and our undying drive to best serve our community, 2017 was a pivotal year for Sound. Some of our changes were quite evident and pronounced while others were considerably more subtle, but no less significant. Without question, the changes in 2017 had purpose and intent, and have a singular focus to ensure that we can meet, and even exceed, our mission for years to come.
The year 2016 was outstanding for SMH. The past year saw the organization celebrating 50 years of innovation and service to the community, and it witnessed the departure of longtime CEO David Stone, PhD, to retirement. Last year also marked the road ahead as we ushered in an exciting new era with the appointment of Patrick C. Evans, SMH’s new President and Chief Executive Officer.
