I love working for Tandem and could not see myself working anywhere else. My job is fulfilling and is constantly giving me the ability to learn and grow while impacting the lives of others in a positive way. I look forward to my future here and am very thankful for the many opportunities and blessings I have received.

– Amy R.

Some day's can be very challenging and I take that as part of learning and building my bond with a client. Tandem gives me the opportunity to work with an individual and find the best way to keep them on track. I always believe in quote I have read: "There is only one way to look at things until someone shows us how to look at them with different eyes"... that someone to me is Tandem Northwest.

– Percis M.

 I have worked for Tandem going on fourteen years, I have grown a lot working here, and so has Tandem over that time. I have enjoyed that because it has shown a willingness to change things that don’t work. One of the great parts of Tandem is how caring and understanding they are, not just to individuals they support, but also to the staff they employ.
