Dear Colleagues,

I’m writing to let you know that Jack Downey has resigned from Abt Associates to pursue other opportunities. We greatly appreciate his contributions during his time with our company and wish Jack well in all of his future endeavors.

While transitions are always challenging, the important work we are doing will continue. We have an aggressive sales goal for the year and the work on our next five-year strategy is ongoing. These, along with executing our work with the highest quality and continuing our focus on impact and mission, must be our priorities.

Effective immediately, Katie Joyce, the Director of the GBDU, will report to me, and I will lead the strategic initiatives and other efforts for which Jack had been responsible.

Please direct any questions about the portfolio of work under Strategic Business Development and New Market Initiatives to me.

Best regards,

Jay
