"People stay actively engaged in relationships for as long as the benefit outweighs or equals the cost to them." #DrBarbaraWatson #OntarioMentorshipCollaborative #MentoringinECE #ECEC #ECEinOntario #ECEWorkforce
We are heartbroken by the passing of Maureen. Fierce, passionate, and tireless in her fight for children and families—she was a force to be reckoned with. Her legacy will live on in all of us who continue the work she so deeply believed in. 💔 everloved.com/life-of/mauree…

So well deserved! Martha has been a driving force behind making childcare better for families across the country.
Congratulations on this wonderful recognition, Martha, and thank you for everything you’ve done for our children and families.
The Key to the City is Toronto’s highest honour, given to those who make an extraordinary impact.
Today, on Early Childhood Education Appreciation Day, I was proud to award it to Martha Friendly, whose work has strengthened childcare and built more inclusive communities.
