“Being a force for good is often the same as being a force for what’s right. I take my role in ensuring the best healthcare is available to everyone in our region very seriously. Everyone—it doesn’t matter who you are—needs good healthcare. And everyone deserves it.”

“For me, being a force for good means accepting people for who they are, striving to truly understand and helping if given the opportunity. In my work, it means creating opportunities to help people live, grow and be as healthy as they can be.”

“The force for good is the movement, momentum and the spirit to drive forward and connect, for the improvement of the greater community.”

“The force for good is determination, compassion and kindness combined to collaboratively improve the greater good.”

“The force for good is being kind to each other and understanding of our differences. Helping and supporting one another to live our best lives is key to creating a happy and healthy community.“

“Being the force for good means being there for our family, friends and community when they need it the most. Connecting them to resources and tools to help them live healthier lives moving forward is just one example of this endeavor. It’s an honor to be part of a team that embraces this calling.”

“To be the force for good is to seize opportunities to make positive changes in the lives of those who surround us. It is having the passion for making our friends, our neighbors, our communities feel valued and have hope.”

Being a force for good means recognizing and building on each person’s strengths. In adaptive recreation, it means helping individuals discover meaningful opportunities in our region and supporting them in bringing those experiences to life. In my work, these experiences empower people to live fully, grow with confidence, and feel more connected to their community.

To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived — that is to have succeeded. In my work, this means doing my best to create opportunities for people to connect with their bodies, their environment, and their community — encouraging self-empowerment and a sense of belonging, all while having fun!

To me, being a Force for Good means working together to lift one another up, striving to be better as individuals and as a collective. It’s about collaboration, compassion, and shared responsibility to create a positive impact. When we come together, we strengthen community wellbeing, and build a healthier, more supportive environment for everyone.
