Charles Therrien, President of Northern Light  Mercy.

Northern Light Mercy Hospital announced last week that Margo Walsh, founder and CEO of MaineWorks, will receive the 2022 Forsley Award.  The award will be presented on Wednesday, November 2 at a breakfast event to benefit Gary’s House, which is a program of Mercy Hospital that provides a home-away-from-home for families with loved ones receiving care at greater Portland healthcare facilities.

This year’s award celebrates Margo’s outstanding community leadership and commitment to helping others through her innovative social staffing company, MaineWorks, which supports recovery and transition into the workforce.  Over the years, Margo has worked tirelessly with local employers to help build their workforce with employees who are beginning a new chapter in their lives.

“It’s an honor for the Mercy family to recognize Margo for her extraordinary work to help support and advocate for others while partnering with employers to help address workforce challenges,” said Charlie Therrien, President of Mercy Hospital.
