Diane Ennis自2010年以来一直是我们机构的志愿者. 她在完成许多重大倡议方面发挥了重要作用, 从我看, to Policy and Procedure manuals, Performance and Quality Management, and Risk Prevention and Management. Each of these initiatives involved great attention to detail, patience, organization and dedication. 除了, 戴安带来了分享她的许多礼物和社区十大最好的网堵平台的附加价值的好处, including her Bell Choir who performed in our conference room during the City of Taunton holiday celebrations.

今年，一项新的倡议正在进行中，这是一项艰巨的任务. 黛安十大最好的网堵平台了数千份记录的重组工作. 戴安和一组志愿者负责将它们重新组织起来, 标签, 索引, re-boxed and ready for appropriate storage. 戴安在这个项目中的领导能力使她创建了一个系统, train others in the system, 并确保本制度的正确实施, which will allow these very important records to be retrievable throughout their legally required storage.

当这个巨大的任务对黛安娜来说进展不够快的时候, she added days to her volunteering; from one day, 到两天, to sometimes three days per week, 这样她就能确保取得进展. She trained three additional volunteers, ensuring the standardization of this very important process. 20年的唱片，整齐地整理在盒子里，等待着最后的润色.

Jim Keiper, Total Achievement Program Volunteer

The TAP team has had the pleasure of working alongside Jim since 2007 at the TAP program in Norton. 吉姆奉献自己的时间，真正体现了志愿精神, 能源, and expertise every afternoon he spends with us. He has impacted the program positively by bringing to light improvements we could implement. The children know that “Mr. 吉姆。” would readily help them with their homework or play a game with them during free time. 他是孩子们喜欢和他一起踢足球的工作人员! He always has a kind word to say even to the most troubled children in our group and asks each of them for a smile and a high five every day. This small gesture to extend his hand and ask for a high five and a smile is probably the first positive thing being asked of the children each day and it has proven to be a great way for them to feel good and connect with another person in a simple, non-threatening way.

It is clear how much he enjoys the children and how important they are to him; and his willingness to go above and beyond to learn is apparent. He attends team meetings, 培训, 他会问问题，在工作上花很多心思. 一些志愿者可能只是来完成他们的工作时间，然后离开, 但你可以看到吉姆把这当成了他生活的一部分. Our team would not be complete without “Mr. 吉姆。”.

丹尼·布伦戴奇，青少年养育计划志愿者

丹尼自2012年以来一直在我们的青少年养育项目做志愿者. He is attending college and working, yet makes time to volunteer with the children at our program. 丹尼守时可靠，孩子们很喜欢他的陪伴. Our children range in age from newborn to three. Danny is equally comfortable holding a newborn, 和大一点的孩子一起玩橡皮泥或在地板上排列汽车. It is not often that a young male is willing to give his time to care for children and this is so very commendable. 我们的许多孩子在他们的生活中根本没有正面的男性榜样. Our staff members are all female; therefore there is little opportunity to expose the babies and children to male nurturing in any form. Danny has provided this for us. 我们的十几岁的母亲很乐意把孩子交给丹尼, 这本身就证明了他在我们项目中赢得的信任. 丹尼会成为一名出色的老师或社会工作者. 他是年轻绅士进入这些领域的榜样, as well as for other interns and volunteers. 他温柔善良，我们很幸运也很感激他能加入TLP.

Nancy Chisholm, Teen Parenting Program Volunteer

Nancy has been volunteering at our teen parenting program since 2012 and has become a core member of our team. She is vital to helping us run our educational and therapeutic groups for the teen moms whom we service.

为了让我们的妈妈每周参加三次小组活动, we rely heavily on our volunteers who come out to our program multiple times a week to help babysit and play with the babies and young children. 南希每天都会抽出时间来帮助我们. She is a constant dependable person who our babies and young mothers have come to count on. Seeing a familiar face helps to ease our mothers as they leave their children to attend group sessions. Nancy always comes in with a smile on her face and is immediately ready to pick up a baby who needs comforting to or to play a game with an older child. Nancy has been there alongside staff watching our babies grow, develop and meet their milestones. 她帮助婴儿们学会坐起来, 爬, 走, 并在探索周围世界的同时发展自己独特的个性. 南希温柔而有耐心，她冷静的举止有助于让周围的人放松下来. Last year we had a baby with serious digestive issues which caused him to spit up a good portion of his bottle after each and every feeding. Nancy came in with a spare towel in one hand and large amounts of love and empathy for him in the other. During November 2013, our teen moms had the opportunity to go to an off-site 6-week parenting group run by Project Connect in Attleboro. The hours were later and were also a bit longer than our normal timeslot; Nancy came with us off-site to help out, never once complaining or missing a night. 她的奉献精神令人钦佩，对我们来说是无价之宝. We hope to have Nancy with us for many more years and so much want to let her know how much she means to our program.
