We Miss You and WE CARE, from Wind River Job Corps

Students are sending the staff at Wind River Job Corps BIG notes of thanks, after nearly every current (off-campus and on-campus) attendee received their lovingly assembled Care Package.

It’s really the thought that counts! And WRJC sent LOTS of well wishes.

Each package contained snack items – the things we all know they like best – mac & cheese, ramen, popcorn, chips and candy treats, along with essential toiletries. A written “we miss you note,” plus journal and pen, were included to help students record their feelings during this historic pandemic event… something they can look back on years later.

Recreation and residential staff created an assembly line to pack the boxes, allowing a few others from security and records to join in the fun. The effort was meant to be therapeutic for students – to know we care and that we recognize some are living in very challenging circumstances – but in reality was also therapeutic for staff.
