Congrats to our April Advocate of the Month, Yasmine Williams! 💙

📢 Yasmine is a Master of Social Work student who aspires to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker after graduation. In addition to her goal of becoming a therapist, she hopes to one day establish a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting disadvantaged youth and children.

💬 “My interest in becoming a care advocate stems from an experience in college that highlighted the impact of not being heard or believed.”

🌟“Anyone who has the pleasure to talk to Yasmine, whether in short passing or for a long sit-down, is immediately taken with her warmth, personability, and ability to be present. She builds trust and rapport with clients very naturally and takes her time to meet all the needs shared. The entire Care Center is so proud to know and work with Yasmine!” - April Weeks (Care Advocate Coordinator)
