Alisha and Dhesiay joined the Ambassador program earlier this year and have since taken advantage of several WWNYC resources. Most notable is their ‘Compassion Carts’ where they toured the hospital checking in on staff while handing out coloring books as a form of self-care. The team has plans to host “Write Minded Mondays” to help employees reset each week through journaling. |
