I'm happy to announce that Evelyn Rainbolt was honored October 2 at the Board of Supervisors meeting as the Santa Barbara County Employee of the Month. Evelyn is well deserving, as she is one of the hardest-working individuals I've ever worked with. She's truly a kind and compassionate person, and embodies the mission of our organization not only at the office, but also in the community by dedicating her time to those less fortunate. Read on to see the full text of the resolution, and a photo of Evelyn and her co-workers alongside her portrait in the County Administration Building.
