2022 Engagement and Collaboration Award

This award recognizes a contribution to government and citizens of PEI through meaningful engagement with the public and cross-departmental collaboration with relevant stakeholders and partners, resulting in a positive impact.

This year’s award is being presented to the Kerrilee MacConnell for her work in Justice and Public Safety Administration and Operations!

Like many workplaces over the past two years, provincial court operations had to adapt and shift significantly throughout the pandemic.

Through her hard work and valued collaboration across many facets of government, Ms. MacConnell and the Department of Justice and Public Safety were able to keep the provincial court systems operational throughout the heights of the pandemic, by introducing virtual models, alternate locations, as well as new jury systems and operational plans across the province.

We thank Ms. MacConnell and the entire team in the Department of Justice and Public Safety for ensuring the administration of justice in the province was able to continue throughout the pandemic.

Congratulations, to Kerrilee MacConnell!
