Staff Recognition 2020

Message of Recognition to our dedicated staff!

The month of December is the time of year our Board of Directors and Administration proudly recognize staff for their years of dedicated service at our Annual Staff Recognition Night. Traditionally, we would have a lovely in-person awards dinner with family and friends.  Unfortunately, in this unprecedented year, we are unable to do so.

This year has challenged us all to innovate the ways in which we provide supports to so many families and individuals. Without hesitation, you all have risen to that challenge. Through the heroic efforts of our staff, we have been able to stay true to our mission and keep our promise to ensure the health, safety and enrich the lives of the individuals we serve.

Our Board of Directors, our Administration, and all of the grateful families and individuals that are supported on a daily basis – send their thanks for the years of service, and forward to many more together.
