She participated in Campbell Institute events and embraced the Institute’s focus on solving global environmental, health and safety challenges through innovation and research. During her life, Lorraine mentored women of all ages on what it takes to be an EHS professional, the importance of connecting with operational leaders, and inspiring employees to improve stewardship and lead with EHS. The Lorraine Pack Memorial Scholarship Fund, established by Laura Fiffick and Brittany Westphal and other generous donors, allows Lorraine's legacy to live on by inspiring young women to pursue careers in the EHS field.

“The Congress and Expo and the affiliated receptions to which I was invited allowed me to network with fellow safety professionals. I bonded with my fellow scholarship recipients, spoke with vendors on the Expo floor about how to improve certain programs and projects at work, and learned really insightful information on how other companies and professionals handle similar situations. The value of my overall experience at the 2018 Congress and Expo cannot be measured. I felt wholly stimulated every moment I was there, both intellectually from the technical sessions, key note speakers and networking, and emotionally because being in a convention full of safety-minded people was like finding my tribe. Thank you!”

“My favorite part would have to be attending the Women’s Caucus. … Being in this group I felt as though ‘women in safety’ is the next big inspirational movement. Safety is a field full of opportunity and being able to hear the stories of other women overcoming the challenges in the male dominated workplace was truly inspiring. This meeting was empowering and made me excited to be a woman in safety. Hopefully I will be able to share just how great it is to others.”
