Happy Administrative Professionals Day!

We would like to recognize two people at the heart of our day-to-day operations, Joanna and Keenan. They keep things organized, steady, and moving forward, all while supporting both our team and the families we serve with patience, kindness, and understanding during some of the hardest moments anyone can experience.

If you’ve ever called, emailed, or walked through our doors, you've likely experienced that firsthand. They are a big part of what keeps this office running the way it should.

So much of what they do happens behind the scenes, but it truly makes a difference.

We appreciate them both more than they could ever know. We thank them for all that they continue to do not just for our office, but for all of Lubbock County.

Come out and grab something delicious!
