I am would like the opportunity to recommend Tish as a mission ambassador. She truly embodies what a team player looks like in the Early Intervention team. During a recent family emergency that I had, she stepped in without hesitation to cover my scheduled child assessment, ensuring everything was handled professionally and with great care. Even when I gave her the wrong house address, she reached out to Erica to get the correct address and did not contact me about it when I was in crisis. Knowing that she was handling the situation with the family and taking control of the assessment gave me peace of mind to spend with my own family when needed. Having a co-worker who truly has your back is an amazing feeling and she is an asset to those she works with as well as those she serves. Her consistent willingness to step in and support any team member in need in a pleasant, helpful, and genuinely caring manner is so appreciated. She makes time to listen, helps problem-solve when challenges arise, and approaches every situation with a collaborative, team-focused mindset. Her reliability, compassion, and dedication make her an invaluable member of our team. I am thankful to get to work with her and if you don't know her, you should meet with her because she is a gem!

Charity is someone I can always rely on. She consistently demonstrates a strong willingness to learn new tasks and readily steps in to support myself and her team whenever needed. Recently, she has taken the initiative to learn PASRR and OEDI/COEDI assessments to serve as a backup when necessary. This is a huge help to the Introduction and Eligibility Department, and I truly appreciate her time, effort and commitment to learning this process. Charity brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her work and is valued member of FCBDD. I truly appreciate her!

We were notified that we were having an audit of the National School Lunch Program. Cathy went above and beyond to ensure that ALL aspects of the requirements were met, not just the fiscal components but the non-fiscal components as well. Our success is a result of her hard work and tenaciousness and benefits not just the school but the entire agency with funding.
