Juan Trejos nominated for 2023 ACS Excellence in Practice Award

by

May 2023- Twice a year, the Office of Family Permanency Services at the Administration of Children’s Services (ACS), recognizes the excellent work foster care staff are doing to help New York City’s children and families. 

Juan Trejos has been nominated for an Excellence in Practice Award due to his outstanding commitment and advocacy for the children, youth and families in Saint Dominic’s Family Foster Care Program.

Mr. Trejos began his career with us 4 and a half years ago as a Discharge Specialist. However, he has morphed into a ‘Jack of All Trades’ within the program. While his main role has been to support children, youth and families on their road to reunification, he has also become a valuable resource within the program, often lending his time to our Case Planning, PYA, Education and Adoption staff.

Mr. Trejos embodies the Saint Dominic’s mission of empowering children, adults, and families facing challenges to thrive in their communities by addressing their needs with compassion, dignity and care.

There will be a virtual celebration on 6/1/23 at 2PM.
