"I really like working here. I have the opportunity to see a program grow and to put my stamp on it. I feel valued and supported and trusted. I'm well-paid in a field that doesn't pay very well and my opinions are sought out and followed up on. I've met a lot of tremendously skilled and talented staff here, with great spirit, who are really good at what they do and have made strong connections with children and families."
