Bridgeway Center, Inc.’s (BCI) President / Chief Executive Officer, Bonnie R. Barlow, SHRM-SCP, SPHR, has been inducted into the 2023 Okaloosa County Commission on the Status of Women (OCCSW) Women’s Hall of Fame for the Carolyn Spencer Humanitarian category. This prestigious recognition is bestowed upon women who have made significant contributions to the welfare of the human and animal populations of Okaloosa County.

“Positivity is a perfect description of Bonnie Barlow,” OCCSW representative Linda Flowers said. “She’s never without a smile, and she radiates positivity.”

“Let us remember that each act of kindness, no matter how small, contributes to the large tapestry of positive change,” Barlow said. “It’s the countless hours spent volunteering at shelters. The tireless efforts to provide aid in times of disaster and the persistent advocacy to those who cannot speak for themselves truly define the essence of humanitarianism.”

Inductees are honored on a wall in the Okaloosa County Administrative Offices in Shalimar, Crestview, and Niceville.
