Summary

At a ceremony at the Savoy Inn, Inspira Health CEO Amy Mansue and educator Jean Skorani were honored as the Cumberland County Women's Hall of Fame 2025 inductees during the organization's 14th annual induction event.

Amy Mansue, president and CEO of Inspira Health, and educator Jean Skorani were inducted as the 2025 honorees at the Cumberland County Women's Hall of Fame induction ceremony held at the Savoy Inn.

The ceremony, presented during National Women's History Month, was described by emcee Donna Bennett as "the fourteenth annual induction ceremony" and recognized two women for their contributions to health care, education and the local community. The National Women's History Alliance theme for the year — cited during the event as "Moving Women: Educating and Inspiring Generations" — was noted by speakers as relevant to both recipients.

Mansue, who the program introduced as Inspira Health's president and CEO (appointed August 2020), spoke about the work of the hospital system and the people who staff it. "It is truly humbling to be before you tonight as an inductee of the Cumberland County Women's Hall of Fame," she said. Mansue highlighted several initiatives at Inspira, saying the system expanded behavioral health programs, launched a violence intervention program, advocated for increased Medicaid funding, and invested in community health work. She credited a Community Health Worker program in Millville to local philanthropic support from "Peter and Jane Galletto."

Program remarks and the transcript identify the organization as a substantial local employer: Mansue said Inspira comprises about 7,800 employees, of whom she described 78% as women, and that seven of 13 senior leaders are women. She also noted a state-funded autism diagnosis program established in Woodbury and Bridgeton with staff members Robin Walton and Brianna Donahue as part of Inspira's expanded behavioral-health services.

Jean Skorani was introduced for her decades-long work in early childhood education. The program credited her with founding Centerton Country Day School (described during remarks as a Montessori-inspired preschool that later became Upper Deerfield Pre School) and with operating teacher resource services through a Village School Teacher Center in Dutch Neck Village. In remarks, Skorani reflected on her upbringing and early influences, saying, "Our motto was early to bed and early to rise," and described how family support allowed her to pursue higher education and open her own licensed preschool.

Shelley Snyder and the Hall of Fame board were acknowledged repeatedly during the program for organizing the event and selecting the honorees. The ceremony also included brief acknowledgments of sponsors and partners: Photokwik (candid photography), CC Tech Studio Production and Broadcasting students (slideshow), Quinn Broadcasting (taping), the Savoy Inn (hosting and catering), and SIR Speedy (booklet production).

Organizers announced scholarships to be awarded at the event and asked past inductees to stand alongside the new honorees. Emcee Donna Bennett, who was introduced in her role as president and CEO of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cumberland and Salem Counties, opened and closed the program with remarks on the importance of community service and intergenerational mentorship.

No formal governmental actions, votes, ordinances or policy decisions were recorded in the transcript of the event.
