The Way We Lead / July 31, 2025
ResCare Community Living Direct Support Lead Hailey Agresta has been Working Smart and Doing Good in Terre Haute, IN.
Hailey’s client, Darcy, came to ResCare Terre Haute in 2015, following a series of behavioral episodes that resulted in the need for 24-hour support services. Darcy did not interact much with others upon her arrival. When staff members noticed her interest in baking, they used this to help her become more involved. Darcy now uses her local library, computer time at the day program, and her tablet, to find new recipes that pique her interest.
Last month, Hailey assisted Darcy in showcasing her culinary talents in the Vigo County Fair in cooperation with 4-H. After much research, the perfect recipe was selected: Oreo chocolate chip cookies. With her entry, Darcy won the purple champion ribbon, which is the highest level one can be awarded.
Thank you, Hailey. You foster a people-focused Environment that plays to the strengths of each individual you support. By helping Darcy accomplish her goals and achieve her dreams, you allow her to live her best life.
WORK SMART. DO GOOD.
