Please join us in welcoming our new Registered Nurse, Erin Gordon (RN)!!! Read more about Erin below.
“Hi there! My name is Erin Gordon, and I’m thrilled to be joining the Support, Inc. team as a new RN Case Manager. I’ve spent the last few years working as a nurse in mental health with a focus on community mental health and substance abuse. I moved to this beautiful state five years ago from Alabama and haven’t looked back. My free time consists of hiking with my dog, doing yoga, reading mystery books, and above all else- cooking! I love to try new recipes and restaurants so please feel free to share your recommendations . I’m very much looking forward to meeting all of you and working together!”
Chris Receives his Colorado’s Drivers Permit!
We would like to congratulate person receiving services, Christopher Manley, on his recent success of obtaining his Colorado’s Drivers Permit! Chris has been studying very hard to reach this goal and recently passed his drivers permit test. You could truly see the great accomplishment in his smile the day he passed. He has taken on the privilege of being able to learn how to drive very seriously and respects the dangers of driving. Chris and Residential Coordinator, Nathan, have been out driving in his car to learn and Chris has done exceptionally well. He has caught on to handling the vehicle and applying proper pressure on break and gas pedal easily. He seems to feel comfortable behind the wheel and we believe he will be earning his driver’s license very soon with the progress he is making. Congratulations, Chris, and thank you to the Pueblo Community Resources team for supporting him to accomplish this goal!

Family Caregiver of the Month
Please join us in congratulating our most recent Family Caregiver of the Month, Craig! This nomination was submitted by Stephanie with the Denver/Colorado Springs Team.
We would like to nominate Craig Sullivan for Family Caregiver (FCG) of the Month. Since taking over as the full-time FCG, Craig’s passion has been nothing short of amazing. He is very mindful with person-centered-thinking, and not only keeps RS engaged with her community, but rather immerses her in it. For example, Craig and RS have attended tribute band’s concerts frequently. RS has established a relationship with the band and has her own set of drumsticks that were gifted to her from them. Craig and RS also like to celebrate Halloween and find much joy in creating a one-of-a-kind costume that takes months to plan. RS even won best costume at the Support Inc. Halloween party! As a Residential Coordinator, it is fun checking in with them because you know they will have a fun story to share of what they’ve been up to. Thank you for being a phenomenal advocate and caregiver. Congratulations, Craig!
