Trisha Bleil and Allison Crouch join the team
July 13, 2023 – Two American Heart Association veterans are joining the Palm Beach County team to support its mission to help residents build longer, healthier lives. Trisha Bleil is joining the team as the senior business operations coordinator, and Allison Crouch joins as a development director for the Palm Beach County Heart Walk.
Executive Director Kayla Fox said she is excited for the energy Bleil and Crouch will bring to the now 12-person Palm Beach team.
“With their backgrounds in different roles and markets within both the American Heart Association and other organizations, I think Trisha and Allison will come to the table with fresh ideas to help us strengthen our community health efforts,” Fox said.
