KTV staff appreciation
From: LVKM Team Leader Jennifer Evans
The appreciation I feel for not only my teammates at LVKM but for all of my co-workers at WIN can not be expressed easily with words. I have worked in this field for many years and I have never seen a group work together harder to achieve not only their own goals but to help the individuals that we serve to achieve their goals too. I have seen you all work through tough days full of confusion, yelling, messes, sometimes even violence and we show up the next day with a smile on our face and ready to help them achieve greatness. Because between all that confusion, yelling and messes there are smiles, laughs, and his achievements, and those are in large part due to YOU! To YOU who choose to show up! To You who choose to help them find their voices! To YOU who continue everyday to show everyone we all have the same rights! To YOU I thank you.
And to the LVKM team thank you so much for staying so consistent through tough times! Always willing to jump in and try new techniques to overcome challenges. Always willing to cover shifts and change shift times. You all are great and the guys think so too!! LV tells me all the time who he likes. Keep up the great work!!! The world needs more support workers like you!!!

From: EG/KG and JR/JS Team Leader
To my awesome, wonderful, amazing, beautiful team:
I just want you all to know how much I appreciate every single one of you. You guys are some of the most supportive people I know and you have made becoming a new team leader less daunting of a role! I can see how much of a difference you make in the lives of the individuals we serve. You are all such amazing role models and never fail to enrich the lives of those around you. And not only are you supportive with the individuals we serve, but supportive with each other. Often, we are the ones needing taking care of! When we need someone to vent our frustrations to, to cover a shift when we aren’t feeling well, to offer a smile and some encouraging words when we’ve had a bad day, I can always count on my team to help me out and that is so important! I appreciate you all SO much. We are all so unique and special, it is our individual strengths and talents are what make this team so strong. It is so hard to put it into words how much I appreciate you all for your strength and guidance. I’ve been blessed to be a part of this team of beautiful, strong, and likeminded women. It has been my pleasure to work alongside you all in this crazy program!
