Meet the ECAC Staff – Toni Stephens

What brought you to ECAC and tell us about your current role?

I was searching for employment and saw the ad for an administrative assistant. When I read the website I had to apply. I am currently the Programs Administrative Assistant/Receptionist.

Why do you love being a part of ECAC?

Knowing that we are helping people without adding to their financial burden.

What is the most memorable event you have attended with ECAC?

Anytime we gather as a group is a memorable event for me since I don't normally attend events.

What keeps you motivated and inspired?

Hearing the thanks from parents

What is one piece of advice you would like to give to the parents you work with?

Never give up on getting what your kids need. They are worth every moment of frustration.

Tell us more about your life outside of ECAC.

I enjoy reading, crochet, sewing and other fiber crafts, writing stories with my husband and spending time with friends and family.

One thing people may not know about me…

I once drove from Huntington, WV to Burleson, TX straight through, spent one night and drove back with a couple of friends just to visit someone for a few hours!
