                      TRIBUTE TO LYNNE MOORE HEALY

 Mr. BLUMENTHAL. Madam President, I would like to pay tribute 
to one of my constituents, who has recently retired from her position 
as a board of trustees distinguished professor at the University of 
Connecticut School of Social Work. Dr. Healy has served as a professor 
for over 30 exemplary years, preparing new generations of social 
workers for service in an increasingly diverse and global world.
  Professor Lynne Healy has been an outstanding pioneer in the field of

international social work, making significant contributions with her 
publications and work in the classroom. Dr. Healy was instrumental in 
establishing the University's Center for International Social Work 
studies over 20 years ago. The center helps social workers develop a 
global perspective on human rights, human needs, social policy, and 
social work practice. These efforts have had a role in the overall 
establishment of this department as a nationally recognized faculty of 
experts.
  We should all aspire to build such a prolific and inspirational 
legacy as Professor Lynne Healy. My wife, Cynthia, and I are honored to 
celebrate Dr. Healy's achievements, and we wish her all the best as she 
begins the next chapter of her life. I know that many across the State 
of Connecticut will join me in congratulating her on this laudable 
occasion.
