For the past 25 years, Chrysalis, an Alberta society that assists individuals with disabilities achieve their employment, volunteer and recreation goals, has been an integral part of FortisAlberta’s Acheson Service Centre. 
 
On Sept. 26, the Acheson Service Centre hosted a lunch for one of the work program participants who celebrated her 25 year work anniversary with FortisAlberta. Congratulations to her for her long standing service with us.
