🎉 Happy 1-Year Work Anniversary! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating one year with one of the sweetest people you could ever hope to work with! 💛

In her role as our Public Health Access Professional, Gaby brings so much kindness, patience, and care to the people she helps each day. She is always willing to lend a hand, answer a question, or simply greet you with a smile, and somehow, she has a way of making the day a little brighter just by being there.

We are incredibly thankful for everything she brings to WCDHD and, most importantly, for the genuinely kind person she is.

Happy one year! We are so glad you’re part of our team! 💛🎉

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage and sacrifice of the first responders, military members, healthcare workers, and everyday people who stepped forward to help others.

We remember the families who lost loved ones, the heroes who answered the call, and the strength of communities that came together in the days that followed.

We Remember. We Honor. We Will Never Forget.
