There's Something
About Donna...

Donna creates activities in the program that give clients a safe
relationship/outlet to explore their inner worlds and to consider taking risks
for their external one. She listens from her heart. Donna teaches her clients to
be more intentional in their choices and less impulsive in their vices.

As a "Duty Fulfiller", Donna has an excellent ability to take any task
and competently define it, organize it, and implement it through to
completion. She is a hard worker who does not allow obstacles to get in
the way of performing her duties.

Donna has the attitude of "I am not listening to problems, I
am listening for solutions." As a Youth Development Specialist,
Donna is able to detach herself from client's problems and keep
an eye on the goals of the clients; to have her clients leave
feeling calmer, kinder, and more optimistic. These personal
traits along with her work ethic, makes Donna an exemplary
deliverer of supportive services.

Donna not only demonstrates cultural diversity, she also
demonstrates caring acceptance of clients with a varied sexual
orientation or identity, financial status and developmental
disabilities. Her patience to explore pain and confusion often
produces meaningful hope for her clients.

Donna's upbringing was one that encompasses her way of life
of charity, volunteer, and courage. For example: spending her
honeymoon helping the poor in the Dominican Republic or working
with inner-city students and families. Donna governs her life
with compassion for the poor and vulnerable - recognizing
respect and dignity in people's lives as "All Equal in God's
Eyes".

Donna has a strong belief in laws and traditions and expects
the same from others. Donna tends to believe that things should
be done according to procedure and plans to inspire solidarity
and integrity in the workplace. Her appearance, demeanor and
communication exemplify a dutiful employee. Always punctual and
generous with her volunteer efforts, she represents dignified
and respectful behavior, and is always considerate of privacy
and confidentiality.
|
|
Donna's strong sense of duty and ability to see what needs
to be done in any situation, without reservation, serves as a
quiet sensitive supporter to clients, their families,
administrators and co-workers. She is able to identify the
emotional needs of those whom she interacts with.
