Lyne’s Biography
Since 2006, Lyne Martineau has dedicated her heart, energy, and commitment to the Centre de santé communautaire de l’Estrie (CSCE). A proud Franco-Ontarian deeply connected to her community, she grew up in Hawkesbury and has always worked to ensure that francophone and rural populations in Eastern Ontario have access to high-quality health services — in their language and close to home.
Deputy Executive Director and Director of Corporate Services since 2022, Lyne plays a pivotal role in the development and growth of the CSCE. She notably led the opening of the Bourget and Embrun sites, as well as their relocation to modernized facilities.
Over the years, she has held a wide range of positions that allow her to fully understand the complexity and richness of the organization: management of community programs, the Diabetes Education Program and chronic disease management services, human resources management, and oversight of the Embrun, Crysler, and Bourget sites. Her integrated vision, attentive leadership, and human-centred approach make her a respected, unifying, and accessible leader.
Before joining the CSCE, Lyne worked in community literacy, where she held positions as Assistant Executive Director and Interim Executive Director. With nearly 30 years of experience in the francophone community sector, she has also served on several boards of directors, always driven by a desire to improve people’s lives.
Holding a certificate in human resources, a degree in psychology, and a master’s degree in social work from the University of Ottawa, Lyne was trained to work closely with Franco-Ontarian populations — a guiding thread she has carried throughout her career. Her journey reflects a deep commitment to social justice, health equity, and the vitality of francophone communities in Ontario.
