Meet Penny, our veteran residential staff, and read her story of how the job grew with her life over decades
“This isn’t a job where you clock in and clock out,” Penny says. “This is a permanent home for people. It’s their safe place. That means when someone’s having a hard time, I walk beside them through it. That’s what we do here.”
Meet Peggy, who found connection and flexibility she was looking for at CSAC
Some of her shifts include overnight hours—but with a sleeping night and a monitor alert in place, Peggy says the nights are quiet. “I’m often in bed by 8,” she says. “It’s peaceful.”
