“One of the best things about being a youth worker is influencing personal development of young people and engaging them in a variety of activities. A great memory was when we had a wrap up recognition event where all the students surprised us and read poems and sang a song that they wrote for us. I was in tears. When your work comes back to you in those terms its pretty real, its not monetary. Not many things can top that kind of acknowledgement." |
| “It is a privilege to work for an organization with a culture of excellence and service, in a supportive work environment that focuses on personal development, health, safety and wellness. I love serving the residents of Richmond and my colleagues. My job at the City provides me with meaningful work and the opportunity to make a difference. I work with great people and am proud to be a part of the City of Richmond team.” |

“I look forward to coming to work because every day is different. Kids come in, seniors come in - there are all kinds of activities for everyone. The City is great for being accessible and diverse. Every year we host a ballet recital and over 400 kids come rushing into the Arts Centre in their ballet costumes. It’s really cute to watch.” |
