Children’s Crossings Child Care Program nominated for the Barnstable County Human Rights Advisory Commission’s Unsung Hero Award

The YMCA Cape Cod is glad to announce that the staff of Children’s Crossings Child Care Program have been nominated for the Barnstable County Human Rights Advisory Commission’s Unsung Hero Award: Celebrating the Strength of Our Communities.

This special award for 2020 is an honorary recognition of individuals and organizations that have made a difference in improving the lives of others during the COVID-19 pandemic. The recipients of this award include the frontline workers that we have depended on to provide daily assistance and necessities, giving us outlets for normalcy through the COVID-19 pandemic. Often overlooked and not publicly recognized, they provide our communities essential goods and services to help meet our basic needs for food, shelter, personal care and well-being. They include volunteers and helpful neighbors freely giving time and talent for community service and lower wage employees that go above and beyond their duties to serve the public. These are members of the community who have always been essential to holding America together day to day. We could not function without them during the pandemic or otherwise.

We could not be more proud of our amazing staff! Congratulations!
