We are incredibly proud to announce that Cheyenne Witherow has been named Associate of the Quarter at The Woodlands Health & Rehab Center!
Cheyenne joined our team as a CNA in February 2024 and has spent the last two years proving what it means to be a dedicated team player. Known for her honesty, integrity, and fierce advocacy for our residents, she consistently puts their needs and well-being first.
What makes Cheyenne’s commitment even more impressive is her "superwoman" balancing act:
• 🎓 She has successfully balanced her work responsibilities while attending nursing school.
• 👩‍👧‍👦 She manages all of this while raising two children.
• 💪 She is scheduled to graduate this May and will be beginning her new journey as a Registered Nurse right here at our facility!
Cheyenne, your flexibility, dependability, and positive spirit make our community a better place every day. We are so excited to support you in this next chapter of your career!

Once again, the Trump Administration and Secretary McMahon are targeting TRIO Programs, and together, we must act to protect these vital initiatives that help many achieve the American dream.

Alumni, Current Participants, Parents, Fellow Educators, Community Partners, and Supporters: Your voices are crucial to protect TRIO and its positive impact on our communities.

Please call your Congressional Leaders on Wednesday, March 25th, and voice your support for TRIO and the negative impact that the proposed changes will have on your community.

Today we celebrate the 40th annual National TRIO Day, a moment to recognize student success, community service, and the transformational impact of educational opportunity. For more than six decades, TRIO programs have opened doors, strengthened communities, and expanded pathways to college and careers for millions of first-generation scholars. We are proud to stand with the TRIO community nationwide.
Thanks to Taylor and Francis, we are offering free access to one article from the Journal of First-Generation Student Success each month, and this month's is about TRIO, featuring data from Kent State University. This study demonstrate that students who engaged with TRIO Student Support Services were more likely to be retained into their second year and to graduate than eligible students who did not participate.
