RE: Recommendation for Rick "Vincent" Chua
To Whom It May Concern,
It gives me great pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Vincent. I supervised Vincent
while he serued as the Inmate Programs Coordinator Assistant at the Rountree Men's Medium
Security Correctional Facility of the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office. The facility houses
approximately 100 inmates. Vincent was the first person to fill the newly created position of
Programs Coordinator Assistant. He came into the position eager and willing to take on the
tasks of developing the responsibilities of the job description along with me. Corrections
institutions can be intimidating and uncomfoftable for many people, although Vincent adapted
well from the beginning. He always had a positive, helpful and collaborative demeanor at work.
Throughout the internship, Vincent demonstrated leadership qualities by independently
managing assignments and completing them with efficiency and thoughtfulness. He contributed
good ideas to improve daily operations and support the organizational development of our
program. Vincent's primary administrative duties were to create and update a profile form for
each inmate at the facility and prepare orientation packets for newly arrived inmates at
Rountree. Vincent also worked in partnership with an inmate to create a resource binder and
organize the programs applications bins in each housing unit. In addition, Vincent answered
inmate's requests for services in one-on-one meetings.
I have supervised many interns in various capacities throughout my career as a Programs
Coordinator. Vincent distinguished himself with his natural curiosity, attention to detail,
accountability, maturity and commitment to holistically serue a diverse population including
ethnic minorities, people with acute circumstances and marginalized groups. It is the rare
person who is interested in providing support services to "criminals" so that they have an
opportunity to access needed seruices and support to make long-term positive change in their
lives. Vincent is one of them!
I believe Vincent would be a valuable member of any program he participates in. Please let me
know if you can benefit from any further insights into Vincent's experience and character by
contacting me at (831) 454-7896 or email: kristieclemens@santacruzcounty.us.
