Shawna Strickland, Executive Director

Hey, there, my name is Shawna Strickland, and I just recently moved to Washington. My long-time sweetheart of 30 years, Jason, and I recently relocated from south-central Texas to Okanogan to become the new student ministry leaders at New Life Church. I love being in community and sharing the vision of growing stronger family units through the resources CARENET NCW provides. The values I live by are centered in Christ Jesus: for life, love and to live in true victory of the first two. It is an honor to serve our communities as the new executive director for CARENET NCW.
