She also advocates for youth rights, HIV\/AIDS, chronic non-communicable diseases, and comprehensive sex education, particularly for adolescents and youths. She has also held key leadership roles in non-government organizations such as the Lions Club of Dominica, Dominica Amateur Athletics Association, National Youth Council, and the Junior Achievement Programme.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the appointment, Phillip Carlisle, Chairman of the Dominica Planned Parenthood Association, stated, \u201cDPPA is pleased and honored to have acquired the skills, enthusiasm, and dedication of such a professional to head the Association. DPPA has in the past been fortunate to be served by a couple of great Executive Directors. Over the past 6 weeks or so, I have had the privilege of seeing Mrs. Carbon at work, and based on what I have seen, I feel a sense of great optimism as to the continued evolution of DPPA. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we are elated to have Mrs. Natasha Jervier-Carbon serve the Dominican society through the Association.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mrs. Natasha Jervier-Carbon has been appointed as the new Executive Director of the Dominica Planned Parenthood Association (DPPA).
