Abstract
Heather Paquette took over as president of Good Shepherd Food Bank in 2023, after more than two decades with Hannaford Supermarkets, where she was vice president of retail services, and managed store support across five states. After taking over Good Shepherd during the lingering effects of the pandemic, she and the nonprofit faced one of the biggest tests in the past year, after the federal government cut SNAP benefits. Good Shepherd stepped in to ensure that Mainers in need continued to have access to healthy food.
