Anne Harding is one of IAP2 Canada’s biggest fans, having been involved with the association as a member and volunteer for over a decade. Through her work with ASC, Anne now supports IAP2 Canada on a contract basis with a focus on strategic initiatives and programming.

Anne also has a deep passion for Indigenous inclusion and reconciliation, which she lives out through her consulting practice at Forum Community Relations and her volunteer work in Community Engagement for the Indigenous Gathering Place Society of Calgary. Anne also brings this passion to her work with IAP2 Canada as the Coordinator of the Indigenous Awareness for IAP2 Canada Leaders program and the Indigenous Engagement Community of Practice.

Tiffany first joined IAP2 in 2007, establishing herself as a leader of change, providing strong analytical thinking and collaborating with various stakeholders to build relationships. A founding member of IAP2 Canada, she was on its Board in various roles, including Vice President. She also helped to establish the Prairies Chapter, volunteering on the North American Conference Committee and presenting at conferences. Tiffany worked a lot behind the scenes before ASC came on board, so is thrilled to be back to help IAP2 Canada grow and implement its initiatives.

Tiffany enjoys spending as much time as she can in nature, living at the lake while foraging for food and drinking wine. She has Bachelor degrees in both Science and Commerce. More recently she has become a 200 hour registered yoga teacher, regularly practicing and teaching.

Anita has always been passionate about community, volunteering and seeking out other points of view. She blended these passions together and joined ASC as the volunteer engagement coordinator and has taken on other roles including herding the various components of the brand graphics. She was honoured to be the recipient of the CPRS Shield of Public Service award for distinguished and dedicated public service. Her most rewarding engagement was transforming a retired transit bus into a mobile public engagement vehicle that was successfully used for long range planning in several B.C. communities. Her ongoing work includes marketing, communications, food security, mentoring young leaders, and Foundation work. And she enjoys the expanse of all things yarn and fibre.
