Ken Biron

Director

Ken began volunteering with the Canadian Cadet Organizations when he was 15 years old in Ft St James BC. During his time there, he learned valuable skills about volunteerism, leadership, citizenship, and life skills. These and other learning opportunities including voice training, carried him through some long hard years after early diagnosis with MS in 2000. After some lifestyle changes like quitting tobacco, Ken became involved in diverse nonprofit volunteer positions. Today he is extremely busy as he volunteers for the Handy Circle Resource Centre and Volunteer Prince George (VPG). Along with being a director at VPG, Ken assists in maintaining the website and social media pages. He is also an advisor for accessibility with the City of Prince George. Ken is involved with the MS Peer Support Group paving the way for a new future for people living with MS.
