August 2025 RECIPIENT-Shannon harting
Here is what her nominator, CHADS Family Support Therapist, Jennifer Lyons said: “Shannon fosters a community of carers at Francis Howell Central High School. Even as an outside counselor, I feel like part of the community which makes what I do so much more effective, rewarding, and doable. I talk to my clients every day about the importance of building strong connections and having a support network to manage stress. I am able to also model these connections and care for myself through Shannon's hard work, communication, and support. Thank you for always making me feel welcomed!!”
Thank you, Francis Howell Central HS, and Ms. Harting, for your partnership!
