TEAM MEMBER STORIES
What our team members have to say

CITIZENSHIP SUPPORT
Seeking employees seeking a better life
Our unique program attracts potential team members by helping their dreams of U.S. citizenship come true.
With the U.S. facing a healthcare staffing crisis, we set out to find a solution. A Goodwin Living resident came up with an idea that proved transformational.
In 2018, resident Rita Siebenaler recognized that it took team members several years and multiple jobs to acquire the money for citizen application fees. She convinced the Goodwin Living Foundation to underwrite those fees and at the same time, suggested residents and team members offer tutoring to prepare applicants for the required civics test. Today, the Goodwin Living Citizenship Program has expanded to organizations across the country, from faith-based not-for-profits to private and public companies. What began as one resident’s vision grew to a life-changing initiative truly powered by purpose.
