"I have seen many changes throughout my 15+ years working at Lutherwood. I started in the 2.5 person Human Resources department, then for a time in the CEO's Office - a chance to broaden my skills and knowledge. Similarly, I have seen many others accept opportunities to grow and develop within different service areas. Our workplace culture is unique. It supports our staff and has an impact on their work with our clients. I especially enjoy seeing the many familiar faces at events like our annual Steps for Kids." — Susanne Kurt, Human Resources Assistant

I can't fully express how appreciative I am for this support and how integral it is to the work that I do." — Dana Christian, Housing Liaison Worker
