Thank you. JustCare Success: Entering the Adult WorldFebruary 1st, 2010While Daphne was in placement at Abraxas LDP, Sean became involved with the family due to concerns with her brother at home.

Compliments on an efficient Court SummaryJanuary 12th, 2010“Just wanted to compliment Tara Hollenbach on her court summary on James Mitchell. It was well written and I especially like how the other children in the home are not mentioned. I don’t know if this was a conscience effort on the part of Tara or JusticeWorks but I know that I LOVE getting court summaries that are specific to the child(ren) going to court rather then those mentioning the other children in the home that are not dependent or alleged dependent. So thank you and send some bonus points Tara’s way.” Letter to Renee Kresge, Lehigh Program DirectorDecember 29th, 2009Hello Renee, I just wanted to take the time and express my thanks for the work Amy Carr has done on the Tyler case. This could have been a difficult transition home with all three children returning in a short period of time, but with Amy’s guidance and knowledge the children and Dorothy have transitioned well. Amy has been on top with having Dorothy attend or being aware of the Carson Valley intake and in-home appointments too. If you have a caseworker of the month, I strongly suggest Amy be the caseworker for December! Thanks, Richard R. Rooming, Jr., MAW Success in Berks County: “Speech about someone who helped me in my life.”November 18th, 2009Please continue to read this post to view a hand-written letter of a recipient of JusticeWorks services we’ve recently recieved. This is a truly touching essay written about the young girl’s case worker, Lisa Bernard.
