Local Agency Shout Out

We recently got some client feedback at the State Office and wanted to give our Upper Arkansas Area Council of Governments (UAACOG) WIC employees a shout-out. Here is what a client had to say about the services she received.

 

“I am contacting you in regards to a couple of employees that are working at the UAACOG WIC Canon City, CO location. I have been a WIC member since 2020. I am pleased to inform you that I couldn't have asked for better care while being a member with your organization located in Canon City. Jessica Rathke was my case manager during the time being and was beyond amazing. During a pandemic and feeling disconnected from the rest of the world, she made you feel otherwise. She has always shown amazing empathy and care. She made me feel connected even with the distance that has been enforced. She goes above and beyond and had so much wisdom to offer me during our WIC meetings. I feel truly blessed to have met such an amazing woman. Julie Peek has also been an employee that when needing assistance she dealt with my questions/concerns with care and consideration. I couldn't be happier with these ladies that are providing time and effort for us mom's and our little ones that are in need of assistance!”

 

Wonderful job UAACOG WIC staff!
