Thanks to our sponsors and the generosity of over 400 people at our sold out gala, we raised over $525,000 to support our young adults.

It’s not too late to break barriers with your generosity!

We now have a matching challenge!

An anonymous donor has generously offered to match up to $150,000 dollar for dollar of additional funds raised between now and December 31st, which could bring our total to $825,000!

Our hearts grieve another young life tragically lost to gun violence. As we send along our thoughts and prayers to the family and friends, we remain committed to the work ahead.

Sending lots of love to those close to Tyrone who came out to his vigil last night.

We are proud to welcome Dahianara Liranzo to the UTEC family to help lead all our Human Resources and Talent efforts.

Born in the Dominican Republic and raised a Lawrencian, she says that her "philosophy in life, and the compassion she brings to her work, was shaped by the cultures, diversity, and vibrancy of the adversity in her younger years." She brings over 20 years of experience in Human Resources across many industries where she has developed and implemented policies and procedures to increase efficiencies, reduce attrition, carry out change management and conflict resolution, and promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. In her most recent role, she managed initiatives across 19 states, with over 3,900 employees. She holds a B.S. from Hesser College in Salem, NH and M.S. from Cambridge College.

She lives in Methuen with her husband and three children where she enjoys listening to audiobooks, checking out interesting new TV series, and playing cards and dominos. She also does a Spartan race every year with her son and husband! (look out!)

Please join us in welcoming Dahianara to the UTEC team! ...
