What is something you love about working at NAFI?
“Most of all I love the people who find their way to NAFI. It is so important to me to feel I am an integral part of this collective group of deeply kind-hearted people who care about our families and our communities. NAFI is an agency that is committed to working hard AND laughing hard as well. I thank my lucky stars all the time that I said “yes” to coming to NAFI CT years ago.”
