Today is National Custodial Worker Appreciation Day, and we’re celebrating Casey Crowe - our Carwash Technician/Janitorial team member; Joshua Pruett-Moore - our Janitorial Assistant; and Gil Biello, our Document Shredder! (Not pictured is Will Poolaw - our Janitorial team member)💙

Today we celebrate Administrative Professionals Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible individuals at VOC who keep everything moving forward behind the scenes.

You are the ones who keep our days organized, our communication flowing, and our programs running smoothly. From managing the details that others may never see, to stepping in wherever needed without hesitation, you make all of our jobs easier and our mission possible.

At VOC, the work we do is meaningful, but it only works because of the strong foundation you provide every single day. Your dedication, patience, and willingness to support both staff and clients do not go unnoticed.

Thank you for being the backbone of our organization, for your commitment to excellence, and for the care you show in everything you do. We truly appreciate you, not just today, but every day.

Happy Administrative Professionals Day! 💙

🎉 Celebrating 10 Years of Dedication & Impact! 🎉

Today we’re taking a moment to celebrate two incredible women who have given 10 years of their time, heart, and dedication to Vocational Opportunities of Cherokee and Cherokee Tribal Vocational Rehabilitation Services.

👏 Magda Sanders, our Client Services Manager, has been such a steady and inspiring leader. The care she puts into her work, her team, and the people we serve shows every single day. She leads with compassion and purpose, and it has made a lasting impact on both staff and clients alike.

👏 Linda West, our Case Management Specialist I, brings a level of consistency and genuine care that truly makes a difference. Whether she’s working directly with clients or supporting behind the scenes, her kindness and commitment help create real opportunities and meaningful change.

Over the past decade, both Magda and Linda have helped shape who we are as an organization. They’ve been part of the growth, the challenges, and the successes, and through it all, they’ve remained dedicated to the people and the mission.

We are so thankful for you both. The work you do matters more than words can fully express, and we are lucky to have you as part of the VOC family.

✨ Here’s to 10 amazing years, and many more ahead!
