Veronica's Story: What the ANCA Network Means to Me

Veronica Frehm, CEO of the Friends of MacArthur Beach State Park in North Palm Beach, Florida, says that her organization made formative changes in the past year: “We committed to making our staff structure the best it can be, with a strong emphasis on enhancing staff culture and integrating best practices across the organization.”

Veronica attributes the Friends’ successful staff structure to an informative session about organizational operations that she attended at the ANCA Annual Summit. With the new framework in place, she says that the organization is set to have a greater impact in the coming years.

“Our team is now operating more cohesively than ever, and we are better equipped to serve our community,” says Veronica. “ANCA’s insights were integral to achieving these outcomes.”
