At a young age, he got out of poverty thanks to family
Growing up in New England, Vincent experienced severe poverty and neglect as a child. When he needed help the most, his now-wife Michelle’s caring family took him when he was a homeless 17 year old. He was then able to complete his GED, and now holds a university degree in sociology! Vincent believes that the right support from the community can truly help change one's trajectory.
Vincent’s wife of 24 years, Michelle, works as a registered nurse in the Horizon system. They moved to the region in 2018 and consider New Brunswick their forever home.
