MHA Announces A New Director of Development

MHA is pleased to announce that Traci Heath has joined the organization as its new Director of Development!

With over 26 years of experience in the nonprofit development and fundraising sector, Traci has held key positions at the American Cancer Society, March of Dimes, and the American Heart Association. She brings a wealth of experience in event management, donor development, major gifts, and corporate sponsorships. In her role as Director of Development, Traci will lead MHA's fundraising initiatives while cultivating and maintaining relationships with individual donors, corporate sponsors, and foundations that align with MHA's mission and programs.

“MHA’s mission to ‘help people live their best lives’ resonates with my professional philosophy,” Traci shared. “I’m eager to utilize my experience in philanthropy to develop long-lasting community partnerships that will advance MHA’s mission.”

Traci will be working alongside MHA’s Vice President of Development & Community Relations, Jen Ducharme. “I am thrilled to welcome Traci to MHA. Traci brings a wide breadth of knowledge and experience to our agency. I look forward to working with Traci to share the great work that MHA does in the community everyday, while expanding upon our community support and awareness,” said Ducharme.

Traci is deeply committed to social impact and prides herself on forming successful partnerships that enhance MHA’s goal of providing the highest quality care and services to those we serve. “When people hear ‘Mental Health Association,’ they only think of one aspect of MHA. I want to show our community the various ways MHA supports different populations and how they can help make a positive impact in someone’s life.”

Welcome, Traci!
