One of our Alpha North staff members received a Direct Support CARE Award from the Richland Newhope - Richland County Board of Developmental Disabilities. Below are some kind words that were shared with the award. Congrats Kathleene!
"Kathleene has worked for The Alpha Group for approximately three years. There is not a more compassionate person who cares beyond measure for employers or individuals she works with. Kathleene has one of the highest placements of individuals and has worked with hundreds of employers helping them meet their employment needs. She is kind, caring, and treats each individual as if she is their mother hen. She takes care of the individuals and genuinely has taken this position for them. She always puts the individual before her needs. She works on weekends, evenings, takes individuals to obtain IDs, and sends out resumes. When Kathleen purchases clothing with an individual for a job, she will always pay the difference so they can have what they need to get a job and to have value in life. Kathleene always talks about how she absolutely loves her job. This job was meant for Kathleene, and there isn’t another person more deserving of this award."
