🏆 Employee of the Month 🏆
After an extensive review process and fierce competition, we are proud to recognize our Advocacy Support Specialist on her three-month anniversary with the Fifth Circuit CASA Program!
Over the past three months, she has demonstrated remarkable adaptability, a consistently positive attitude, and an impressive ability to keep the Executive Director on task and moving in the right direction.
While her official title may be Advocacy Support Specialist, she has also served as our Emotional Support Specialist, Easter Event Specialist, Smoked Meat Specialist, and all-around CASA Event Specialist. Whether she's supporting volunteers, helping with case management, organizing events, or stepping in wherever needed, she approaches every challenge with enthusiasm and a willingness to help.
Thank you for everything you do to support our mission and the children we serve. We are lucky to have you on the team. Congratulations on three months, and on being Employee of the Month! 🎉
