I think it's important to note that this customer has been in Caroline County's caseload since 2008 and many caseworkers have touched her case. I was just lucky enough and privileged to be the supervisor of the one of the best programs around when her case was chosen to be highlighted. Jena Spurry was her case manager at one point, Holly Callaway was her case manager at one point, and Charlene Sanders was the case manager when she finally decided that she had enough of us fussing with her and to get it together. It takes a village to help our community and we are one AWESOME village here at DSS. I was honored to be at the Governor's State of the State, it was surreal. But, I was beaming with pride because I know that everyday, all day, each and every one of us here at Caroline County DSS would have done the same thing to help any one of our thousands of customers.
