✨ AUGUST EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH: ERICA ✨
We are so excited to recognize Erica, our Behavior Specialist, as Pathways’ August Employee of the Month!
Erica joined our team in March and truly hit the ground running. She came to Pathways with years of experience working with children with disabilities and teaching regulation skills, and it did not take long for her to start making a meaningful difference in the lives of our kids.
Erica is the kind of person who is all in. She plays, teaches, helps our kids regulate, celebrates their wins, and takes the time to build genuine relationships with them. The relationships she has built with our kids in such a short amount of time speak for themselves.
She is also an incredible support to our staff. Erica is hardworking, dependable, fun, and always willing to jump in wherever she is needed. If a staff member needs help or that walkie goes off asking for support, Erica is running. She makes sure our kids are supported, our staff are supported, and no one feels like they are handling a difficult moment alone.
Being a Behavior Specialist means showing up during some of the hardest moments, but it also means being there for some of the best ones. Erica brings patience, compassion, humor, consistency, and a whole lot of heart to both.
In just a few months, Erica has become such an important part of Pathways. Her dedication to our kids and our team does not go unnoticed, and we are incredibly lucky to have her.
Congratulations to our August Employee of the Month, Erica! We appreciate everything you bring to Pathways every single day. 💚
