Multicultural Council names interim executive director

There's a new person in charge at the Multicultural Council of Windsor and Essex County (MCC), at least for the time being.

The agency on Tuesday announced that Daniel Beliciu will step in as the interim executive director, effective on Saturday, November 14.

Previous executive director Fred Francis is leaving the MCC this week after winning election as Windsor's next mayor.

"We are incredibly proud to announce Daniel Beliciu as the next Interim Executive Director of the MCC," said MCC Board President Dr. Saad Jasim. "Daniel brings extensive organizational knowledge, leadership experience, and a deep understanding of the MCC's programs, people, and community partnerships. We are confident in his ability to lead the organization into its next chapter while continuing to build on the strong foundation that has been established over the years."

Beliciu is currently the MCC's director of programs and development. He has also taught at the University of Windsor and served as the national program manager at Palette Skills Canada.

"I am excited to work alongside our Board of Directors, staff, community partners and funders as we continue building on the MCC's strong foundation," said Beliciu. "Our commitment to promoting diversity, advancing equality, and creating a welcoming community for all remains at the heart of everything we do."
