He has also served in senior management roles with multiple provincial ministries. Aaron holds a Master of Environmental Studies and a Master of Business Administration.

“It’s a privilege to serve as OMSSA’s Executive Director,” says Stauch. “Our Members are on the front lines supporting the most vulnerable people in their communities. As we refresh OMSSA’s mandate, ensuring the system continues to meet real-world needs is critical. I look forward to working alongside each member to position Ontario at the forefront of human services delivery.”

“We are pleased to have Aaron join OMSSA at this critical time in the Association’s development,” says OMSSA President Stella Danos-Papaconstantinou. “Aaron has a reputation of being a leader with inspiring vision, collaboration, and strategy to approach the work of human services. OMSSA Members will be pleased with the direction he takes the Association in as he takes on this opportunity.”

Aaron joins the Association at an exciting time, and will leverage his forward-thinking leadership, and strong human services, municipal, and government relations knowledge to build the momentum on the strong and steady leadership of OMSSA’s Interim Executive Director, Adrienne Jugley.

OMSSA congratulates Aaron on his appointment and looks forward to working with him to lead the Association into its next phase.
