August Award Recipient

Billy Williams and staff

Nominated by Ryan Handy - Construction Specialist at Construction Department

Over the entire time I have worked in the Maintenance and in the Construction Department, I have noticed Mr. Billy Williams go above and beyond to make everyone feel like they have the ability to grow.  Mr. Williams on numerous occasions put me in a better position to succeed and make tough decisions. He backed me no matter what the outcome was.  Mr. Williams encouraged me to grow as a staff member, inspiring me to become a Facilities Specialist, taking a supervisory role within the Maintenance Dept., then asking them to offer me another more challenging, tougher role as a Construction Specialist on the hurricane recovery side.  Mr. Williams additionally has recommended that I prepare myself for the next step as construction manager in the coming months.  I am not the only person with this story.  I have witnessed Mr. Williams do the same for many other staff. He believes whatever the case may be, it's always for the betterment of the children.
