August 2024 Staff Recognitions

Please join us in congratulating the August 2024 Recognition Recipients!

Rise to the Occasion Recognition

The Rise to the Occasion Recognition is given to individuals who see a need within the agency and go above and beyond to fill that need.

Please join us in congratulating Coty Patenaude, Senior Counselor at Rain House, as the August Rise to the Occasion Recognition recipient.

Coty is an incredibly efficient, organized, and determined worker. She is very helpful to her coworkers, especially when learning and understanding the Rain House medication system. She jumps right in to explain it to ensure the entire process run smoothly.

Thank you Coty!

Rise to the Extra Mile Recognition

The Rise to the Extra Mile Recognition is given to highly motivated individuals who go that extra mile in their job. Rise to the Extra Mile honorees get to park in a designated parking space at the RISE administration office.

Please join us in congratulating Lindsey Pasco, Child & Youth Care Manager, as the August Rise to the Extra Mile Recognition recipient.

Lindsey is a breath of fresh air on the Youth Care Management team with her continued willingness to support both her peers and her families all the while remaining so kind and positive in the workspace!! Lindsey is always taking the initiative to learn about more/new community resources for the children we serve and sharing that wealth with her fellow care managers.

Lindsey goes out of her way to make sure everyone feels supported and comfortable, even outside of her own program. Currently, she is pursuing her master’s in social work with the hopes of becoming an LCSW to further support the needs of youth in need of mental health care.

We’re so lucky to have her on our team and watch her continue to blossom in both care management and in her leadership position!”

Please join us in congratulating Matt Durham, PSAP Program Director, and Vita Nemeyer, PSAP Program Supervisor as the August Staff on the Rise Recognition recipients.
