MCH Earns Award for Inclusive Workplace

Monroe Community Hospital (MCH) is proud to announce that it has been recognized for its commitment to creating an inclusive workplace and supporting employees with disabilities.

Nominated by Suzanne Broer of Heritage Christian Services, MCH was honored at a Rochester Area Employment Network (RAEN) awards program during National Disability Employment Awareness Month in October.

The recognition highlights the efforts of Food and Nutrition Director Jacob Letourneau and Kitchen Manager Shawna Williams to accommodate and support employees of different abilities, strengths and workplace needs.

The nomination praised Williams and Letourneau for balancing clear workplace expectations with compassion, understanding and individualized support. Their efforts reflect MCH's commitment to recognizing each employee's abilities and potential while providing opportunities to build skills, confidence and stability.

The recognition reinforces the importance of inclusive employment practices and the valuable contributions people with disabilities make to the workforce.
