Values Hero Awards

Employee of the Month

January :
Chelsea Karvonen

Gosnold is excited to announce our first Values Hero for January 2025, Chelsea Karvonen, Business Development Representative! 

Nominated by Danae Young, Chief Operating Officer, here’s a little more about Chelsea, who joined us from Duffy Health Center in July 2024, bringing with her a wealth of business knowledge:

“In less than six months, Chelsea has completely transformed the Business Development role, seamlessly integrating it into the organization. She has taken ownership of every task handed to her with unwavering commitment, demonstrating a willingness to tackle challenges head-on and always putting the needs of our patients first. Chelsea consistently goes above and beyond, ensuring each individual receives the support they need, no matter the circumstance.

Chelsea’s ability to harness her experience and knowledge to develop and execute strategic plans is remarkable. She regularly provides valuable feedback, pivots when necessary, and takes on additional responsibilities—all while exceeding her challenging monthly goals. Her dedication to balancing the organization’s needs with her ambitious goals is a testament to her incredible work ethic and integrity.

She has cultivated strong relationships across all Gosnold locations and with external stakeholders, including local courthouses, sober homes, hospitals, recovery events, symposiums, and more. When representing Gosnold at community events Chelsea exudes professionalism and positivity, becoming a trusted and respected face of the organization.

Chelsea’s innovative ideas, tireless efforts, and leadership qualities set her apart. She is an inspiration to her colleagues, and her unwavering dedication to our mission ensures she consistently delivers outstanding results. I am confident Chelsea will continue to excel in her career and bring immense value to Gosnold. For her extraordinary contributions and embodiment of our values, Chelsea is undoubtedly deserving of this recognition.

February :
Robert (“Junior”) Teal

The Employee Engagement Committee has selected Gosnold’s next Values Hero for February and we’re happy to announce congratulations are in order for Robert (“Junior”) Teal, Custodian at GTC. 

Robert joined Gosnold in July last year, and in short time, has made an impact both within the facilities department and on the environment of care for our patients and staff. It’s no small thing for our patients to be able to enjoy a space that feels safe and clean.

Here’s a little more about why Robert was chosen to receive this award, in the words of his nominator, Dennis Cronin, Assistant Director of Culinary and Facilities:

“Robert (or as we like to call him: Jr.) has brought to the housekeeping department a very unique perspective and work ethic. Robert has been tasked with multiple jobs in his role, from housekeeping, custodial duties, laundry, trash, and cleaning up bodily fluids. He is willing and able to help anyone with anything on any given day. [During a recent] snow event, Robert, who rides a scooter to and from work, could have just called it and said I can’t get to work today. Instead, he found a way to maneuver the scooter through the snowstorm, arriving at GTC on time and working solo, as others could not make it in. Robert took on the challenge of handling the entire facility on his own when, at a minimum, we need three personnel. On this particular day, this job meant cleaning the all the community rooms, the quad, admissions, and both the 100 and 200 sides of the building. Robert managed to do this without one single complaint. He truly made this day a better day for all.”

March :
Donald (Donnie) Brine

Gosnold is thrilled to share our newest Values Hero with you (drum roll, please)…. Congratulations to Donald (Donnie) Brine, Counselor at Emerson House. 

Donnie started with Gosnold in October 2022 as a case manager at Emerson House. Just a year-and-a-half later, he was promoted into a counselor role where he continues to help his team and patients with all the knowledge he developed as a case manager. He was nominated by not one, but three peers, all who submitted their recommendations to his supervisors. Keep reading for more about Donnie and his nominations!

“Donnie transitioned from counselor to case manager when the team needed someone, and he not only functioned, but thrived in the new role. Donnie’s teamwork, respect, integrity, and accountability helped change the lives of his clients and their families. Donnie achieved this with true grace and strength, and it has been an honor and an inspiration to work alongside him.” – John Murray, Counselor at Emerson House

“Donnie was covering for case management before I became a case manager. While juggling 43 patients at a time, he went above and beyond to teach me the ins and outs of the job. While he doesn’t believe he is a good teacher, I have learned more in my time working with him than he even realizes. Donnie takes the time to make sure everyone is attended to and set up with after-care, even if things appear to not be working out. I am very grateful to be working with him and cannot think of anyone more deserving of this award.” – Hannah Cuoco, Case Manager at Emerson House

“Donnie has stepped up and taken on the case management duties solo [when we needed help]. He has worked non-stop to be of assistance to our patients and our team.” – James White, Jr., Counselor at Emerson House

April:
Alexandra (Alex) Bruno

The Employee Engagement Committee is excited to announce our newest Values Hero for April. Big congratulations go to Alexandra (Alex) Bruno, Recovery Coach. 

Alex began at Gosnold during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic as a Recovery Aide at our CSS-level of care in February 2021 (which already says a lot about her commitment to our values)! She transitioned to her current coaching position in June the following year and has been an invaluable member of that team ever since. Alex was nominated by her manager, Luis Perez, Program Supervisor of Community-Based Programs for April’s award. Read on for more from Luis about why Alex is so deserving of the Values Hero Award!

From Luis: “Alex demonstrates Gosnold’s values every day at work and outside of work. She has a way of connecting with her recoverees that takes skills that cannot be taught. Alex is able to help recoverees safely take down their emotional walls and build strong trust. She properly and safely guides her recoverees through the many pathways that come after treatment in order for them to find what works best for them, leading them to long-term recovery.”

May:
Kim Butler

The Employee Engagement Committee is thrilled to announce our newest Values Hero for May, especially because if you’ve ever even passed through corporate reception, you’ve certainly had the pleasure of meeting this person. Please join us in congratulating Kim Butler, Corporate Administrative Assistant. 

Kim joined Gosnold in February 2016 as our Corporate Receptionist. In 2024, she was promoted to Corporate Administrative Assistant, taking on increasingly demanding accountabilities, meeting the administrative needs of our Senior Leadership Team, and generally keeping corporate reception running like the most finely tuned machine it is. Read on for more about Kim’s commitment to our values – in the words of the employee who nominated her, Rachel Thuillier, Director of Patient Access.

“It is with great pride that I nominate Kim Butler for Values Hero. Kim is an exceptional member of the Gosnold community, and this consistently shows through her unwavering dedication to the company. Kim serves as the face and voice of Gosnold, always providing a warm and professional first impression to all. Kim handles the corporate reception lobby with grace and attention to detail that leaves many with a positive experience with Gosnold. Kim is heavily relied upon for crucial tasks that assist so many in the company and ultimately, our patients, and she does this daily with no hesitation and a smile. Not only is Kim highly organized and punctual, she is also kind and respected by so many. Kim is the first to ask you about your vacation you just returned from or the puppy you just got — she makes you feel like she doesn’t forget a single thing, which leaves everyone who interacts with her feeling appreciated and heard. Kim truly deserves this recognition, and I am honored to nominate her. Thank you, Kim, for all you do for all of us each day!”

June:
Kim Cardoza

The Employee Engagement Committee is excited to announce we’ve selected Gosnold’s newest Values Hero for June. Please join the Gosnold community in congratulating Kim Cardoza, Business Development Representative. 

Kim has worked for Gosnold previously as both a Recovery Aide and, more recently, as a BH-JI Navigator, supporting members of our community who are justice-involved reintegrate into their lives outside incarceration. She was recently promoted into the role of Business Development Representative (way to go, Kim!). Please read more about Kim (below) from her nominator and former manager, Suzanne McCormack, Director of Community-Based Programs.

“Kim will be transitioning from BH-JI Navigator to the business development team, but before she goes I want to acknowledge her many contributions to the BH-JI team because there is no one that brings more warmth and positivity to our group than Kim! Since joining the BH-JI team, Kim has consistently demonstrated a strong alignment with all of Gosnold’s core values. As part of our team, Kim establishes a collaborative environment, always willing to lend a helping hand and share her knowledge. She is the first to step up and help her colleagues. Kim’s integrity defines her work. She tackles every task with honesty, earning the trust and respect of both her colleagues and clients. She has played an instrumental role in developing our relationship with the Barnstable Recovery Court and they will truly miss her weekly presence. Kim treats all clients with the utmost empathy and care, recognizing the unique challenges they face. Her respectful approach has made a significant impact on the lives of those we serve, establishing a sense of trust and safety. Overall, Kim’s exceptional performance and embodiment of Gosnold’s values make her a deserving candidate for June’s Values Hero. Her contributions have greatly enriched our team, and I am confident that she will continue to excel and inspire those around her in her new role.”

July:
GTC Recovery Aides

t’s wonderful celebrating YOU: the drivers of the Gosnold mission, vision, and values. We are recognizing not one individual for July’s Values Hero Award, but an entire team. Please join the Senior Leadership Team and Employee Engagement Committee in congratulating the GTC Recovery Aides as our first team recipient for this monthly award. They are:

 Nicole Bennett, Kelly Cleary, Paul Cooper, Jennifer DeBlasio, Armando DeLeon, Sarah Edelberg, Chelsea Fontes, Nicholas Govoni, Audrey Hebditch, Richard Herrera, Robert Melo, Broghan Miller, Michael Perlin, Dayle Porter, Mike Rezendes, Yuolanda (Yoyo) Rosario, Aaron Sawyer, Kyle Smith, Timmy Souza, Sarah Texeira, and Susan Walsh Keep reading for more from their nominator and supervisor, Ashley Phillips, on why the Engagement Committee selected this group among the nominees.

“I am truly privileged to nominate the Recovery Aide Team at GTC for Employee(s) of the Month. Their invaluable role often goes unsung, yet their contributions resonate deeply throughout every corner of our facility. The Recovery Aides serve as the eyes and ears of our community, acting as a bridge between patients and staff across all departments. They find themselves on the frontlines, navigating situations that can be both challenging and emotionally intense, and they do so with remarkable grace, professionalism, and dedication. Their unwavering presence, gentle demeanor, and exceptional interpersonal skills create a safe and nurturing environment for both patients and colleagues alike. They represent strength through compassion and embody excellence through their everyday actions. The Recovery Aide Team doesn’t just reflect one or two of Gosnold’s core values; they encompass them all. Their impact is profound, and they deserve our heartfelt recognition.”

August:
Jillian Kilduff

The Employee Engagement Committee is excited to announce the newest in our line of Values Heroes – this time for August. Please join us in congratulating Jillian Kilduff, GTC Nurse, as our next Values Hero!

Here’s a little more about Jillian, from her nominator, Gregg Davis, Assistant Director of Patient Access:

“The ‘Nemo’ Award recognizes employees who go the extra mile to fulfil Gosnold’s mission, which describes Jillian Kilduff perfectly. Interaction between the nursing and patient access departments happens daily, many times when time sensitive decisions or pivoting of plans is required. Each time Patient Access has asked for change or to quickly look over something to assist in providing a patient with an admission to GTC or Emerson, Jillian gets the job done. There is little hesitation or placement on the back burner. She approaches the task with confidence, empathy, and professionalism. Even when the outcome will be quite different than the original request, she works collaboratively to find a solution. Jillian swims quickly, and even against a strong current, to assist the patients and staff at Gosnold.”

Jennifer Ferreira, Senior Director of Clinical Services, shares why she loves working at Gosnold. Thank you Jenn for your commitment to Gosnold and our mission! #whygosnold

“Gosnold has been an important part of my life for the past 20 years. Throughout that time, I’ve felt connected to our teamwork, drive and commitment to the mission and values. I have been presented with countless opportunities for growth both personally and professionally. Supervisors and leaders have encouraged and supported me to develop skills outside of my comfort zone which has been extraordinarily rewarding. My experiences have fostered my development as a clinician, supervisor, manager and leader. I’ve also met some of the most dedicated and compassionate individuals I’ve ever encountered. I am grateful for each and every person in this organization as we all play a vital role in carrying out our mission.

The individuals and families we treat express a trust in our quality of care, trust in our employees and an overall appreciation for the organization. We are a beacon on their journey. I feel honored to be part of such a special organization.

On behalf of the HR team and the Employee Engagement Committee, we are excited to share with you that April’s Employee of the Month and the recipient of Gosnold’s Tortoise Award is… Lenny Cardoza!

The “Tortoise” Award recognizes employees whose diligence and perseverance support Gosnold’s mission and long-term vision. These are the employees who embrace challenges and turn them into opportunities for growth, no matter how long or difficult the pathway forward may be.

From Suzanne McCormack, the Director of Community Partnerships and BH-JI:

“Lenny recently transitioned into a new role of BH-JI Navigator. Lenny has embraced this exciting role, learning while he goes, and persevering through the more difficult parts that are completely new to him. Lenny does not use Evolv in his other roles and has been diligent in making sure he is accurate in documenting his visits with our new enrollees. I knew that Lenny would be great with clients, but he has also been up to the challenge of learning this new program. He has jumped in with both feet and we would not have been able to have a successful launch without him working hard, asking questions, and as always, going above and beyond for the people we are helping on a daily basis.”

On behalf of the HR team and the Employee Engagement Committee, we are happy to share with you that May’s Employee of the month is Dany Cranshaw for putting the C in I2CARE and reflecting our organizational value of collaboration at its finest!

Here’s just a little bit about what her leader and nominator, Bill Abbate, has to say about Dany:

“Dany has been with the company for over five years – starting in the kitchen, to R.A., Lead R.A., and now in her current position of Recovery Specialist in the E.D. Dany uses her collaboration skills every day in her everyday routine, collaborating not only with me, and her other coworkers, but even more importantly with the staff at the hospital. Doctors, nurses, and social work always speak extremely highly of Dany. I hear from them several times a month praising her for the work she does. Her job includes not only speaking with patients about their SUD but then collaborating with different treatment facilities to arrange placement, getting hospital records sent over, phone intakes done, then getting patients transported to the facility. She always goes over and above for our patients.”

On behalf of the HR team and the Employee Engagement Committee, we are excited to share with you that June’s Employee of the Month for the Torch Award is Yuolanda (Yoyo) Rosario.

The Torch Award recognizes employees who routinely bring positivity and warmth to the workplace. These are the employees who boost morale when it starts to wane and who reflect Gosnold’s values of excellence, collaboration, and accountability on the team level, understanding the impact one can have on many. If you’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Yoyo in any capacity, you know she embodies the meaning of this award.

Here’s a little more about Yoyo from her nominator, former Miller House (now Stoughton/North Dartmouth) program director, Jenny Raffa:
“Yoyo is a valuable member of our team. Her positive attitude and infectious laugh keep us all smiling while providing a sense of camaraderie and team spirit. Her dynamic personality captures the hearts of our patients. She always goes the extra mile to do the things that make our patients happy and content, whether it’s just sitting with them or offering a kind word. Yoyo finds the most positive way to encourage patients who are struggling. She can bring around a struggling group with her inspiring words and messages of hope. Yoyo’s genuineness with patients and staff alike is the quintessential representation of Gosnold’s values.”

On behalf of the HR team and the Employee Engagement Committee, I’m excited to share with you that July’s Employee of the Month for Gosnold’s value of accountability is Delores (Dee) Gonsalves.

We often talk about accountability, but what is it really? Accountability is simply a person’s willingness to take ownership of the outcomes of their choices, behaviors, and actions in all situations in which they are involved – not just in instances that go well or smoothly, but also in those that don’t – that’s how we problem-solve and learn!

Here’s a little more about Dee from her manager and nominator, Dennis Cronin, Assistant Director of Facility and Culinary Services: “Dee has the attitude of ‘What lies in front of me and how do I get myself through it?’. Regardless of whether it’s in outpatient, administration, corporate, or our guest rooms, Dee holds herself accountable for not only cleaning, vacuuming, mopping, room turnovers, restocking, and moving both linen and trash, but Dee is also accountable for ordering the supplies she needs, which includes all linen, cleaning supplies, and paper products needed to make our staff and guest experience that much better. She does all this while assuring the staffing needs of GTC housekeeping are met regardless of what day of the week it is – often picking up shifts to ensure the task at hand is being accomplished.”
