Frank Principi, a Woodbridge Supervisor, has announced that he has stepped down as the Executive Director of the Greater Prince William Community Health Center after seven years of service.
According to Paul Moessner, president of the health centerâs board, Principiâs role as director was always meant to be a temporary one.
âWe had a sit-down conversation about the things heâs looking to do, and things that [the center] is looking to doâŠ[he] was brought on as a short-term rescue mission to decide whether or not we could be successful and go forwardâŠand that was seven years ago. So we have moved significantly past that, and Frank has been just an absolute wonderâŠbut it was time to move on,â said Moessner.
