Recently, Chapel Haven parents had the chance to nominate a staff person who they feel goes above and beyond in a campaign called “Chapel Haven Shining Stars.”
We got so many wonderful comments from families, who recognize that Chapel Haven employees go above and beyond to uphold our mission: of empowering our adults to live the best life they can live! If you are a parent or sibling looking to give a “shout-out” to a Chapel Haven employee as a Shining Star, send your comments to cdecarlo@chapelhaven.org
Here are the comments we received from families about “shining star” staffers:
Amanda and John
Amanda Alteri Amanda is kind, caring and reliable. She provides constructive feedback that motivates
John to improve. Amanda helps John form strategies to navigate his life. John calls Amanda with
questions or concerns before he calls us. He trusts her — which is everything. She is a shining star!
