It has been said that “Public service is a high calling, worthy of the best and brightest of our students and citizens”. When I look
and as I work with my CPD team I couldn’t agree more. I am fortunate, as well as HUD, the Caribbean territory and our Nationin
general, to count with such talented, brilliant but above it all dedicated and committed group of professionals as my team. Your
sense of duty and inner commitment derives satisfaction from the contribution to society and our nation rather than simply the
personal satisfaction. In precarious time for the Territory we serve and as we are improving our team skills and dynamics, we are
all convinced on our capacity as a Team and as individuals to engage, improve and make a difference so we accepted the
challenge. We looked beyond our differences and focused on our goals.
“No es dibujar la paloma es hacerle el pico y que coma” started as a joke but became a mantra on our approachand dedication
to build our grantee’s capacity and improve its overall grant management skills. Fortunately after lots of effort, time, education,
negotiation and persuasion, for most of our grantees results are starting to show.
Thank you to each one of you for following the Call to Serve and dedicating your lives to the highest commitment of serving
others, serving your Nation.
I would like to take this opportunity on PUBLIC SERVICE RECOGNITION WEEK to thank and congratulate each you for making the
choice to serve, your effort and dedication:
