Classification Speech
My Not so linear life and How Connections Created a Global Network .
Alysa Huppler-Poliak joined Inclusion BC in September 2023 as a Labour Market Facilitator for the Metro Vancouver region with the Ready, Willing & Able program (RWA). She comes to this position after spending four years supporting two MLAs in British Columbia: Bob D’Eith, MLA for Maple Ridge-Mission and Brenda Bailey, MLA for Vancouver-False Creek. She brings a wealth of knowledge about the Provincial Government and has many connections throughout the province in the private, public, and non-profit sectors. Before getting into BC Politics, she spent 8 years in Southern California where she was involved in international and community development projects. Alysa strongly believes that our world can become a more inclusive place when we all just slow down, connect and learn about one another.
Alysa lives in the beautiful community of New Westminster, with her amazing boyfriend Jordan and the doggie love of her life, her pomchi, Lola. In her spare time, she enjoys being active and focusing on health and wellness: playing in a local soccer league, focusing on her health and wellness, going on walks with Lola and keeping a positive mindset.
