MANCHESTER, Maine (October 28, 2020)—The Home Care & Hospice Alliance of Maine, the trade association representing agencies that serve more than 45,000 clients annually throughout the state, has welcomed new leadership to serve the 2020-2022 term. Colleen Hilton will serve as President and Daryl Cady will serve as Vice President.

“Colleen and Daryl have boots on the ground at two of the most prominent health care organizations in the state,” said Laurie Belden, Executive Director of the Home Care & Hospice Alliance. “They have nuanced understandings of the needs of home care and hospice here in Maine and the experience to propel our mission to improve the lives of patients and workers, particularly during this pandemic. We’re lucky to have them on our team as we navigate through these unprecedented times.”
