A recent story in The Caledonian-Record highlights the dedication of NKHS team members Chris Dennehy and Melissa Gans, whose persistence and compassion helped a local man move from a park bench into a motel room.
This is the work that happens every day at NKHS and throughout our community—advocating, navigating barriers, meeting people where they are, and never giving up.
To all those who work tirelessly to support our neighbors, thank you for leading with compassion, dignity, and heart. Your work matters, and our community is better because of you.
Because we’re all about being human.
