    For RISE 2023, Jacey will be attending the Boston Leadership Institute in Wellesley, Massachusetts. An avid volunteer, Jacey has been involved in multiple leadership roles at her school and community, including Shad Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador Youth Parliament and Relay for Life. After high school, Jacey aims to pursue a career in the medical field.
