We are deeply saddened to hear the news that Mr Abdirizak Karod, Executive Director of the Somali Centre for Family Services has passed away. He was a long time partner and friend to SEOCHC - he was a driving force behind years of integrated services and partnerships to serve the community. He was a pillar of the community - bridging divides for decades and always with a smile. He will be greatly missed.
