A Time to Give Thanks

by | Nov 21, 2018 | Blog

At North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, our team of social workers, psychologists, family advocates and other dedicated staff members work throughout the year to bring hope and healing to children and families facing mental health and substance use challenges. We are grateful to our clients, who put their trust in us, and to our supporters, who make our work possible.

Below, some members of our team share what they are especially grateful for at this time of thanksgiving.

I am so very grateful to work for an agency that is in the business of saving the lives of so many children. – Cindy A., Director of Outpatient Operations

I am thankful for my family and our health. – Brooke G., Special Events Coordinator

I am grateful to have had the privilege of spending all of my adult life working to better the lives of vulnerable children and their families. –  Andrew M., Executive Director

I am very grateful for having had more than one chance in life to become the best I can be! I am grateful for having a loving and supportive family who has always given me what I have needed the most in times of great need. I am also grateful for the many that listened to my innermost voice.  I would not have been able to do this by myself! I am grateful for those who have spoken up for me when I could not do this, and I admire and respect those who have had the courage to say out loud they have felt the way I did some time in their life. This is greatly appreciated by not only me but also by those who feel they cannot speak up at the moment….they will do so when they can! –  Vilma B., LCSW, social worker

I am very thankful for my family, my little man and especially for the best husband in the world. I am also thankful for being in my new home, for about a year now.  – Jennifer S., Senior Billing Specialist
