This month, WorkQuest hosted two annual events celebrating the impact of the State Use WorksWonders Program. On September 22, attendees gathered for the 18th Annual Artie Lee Hinds Award Dinner, honoring outstanding employees, customers, and partners, and featuring an inspiring Q&A with former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie.
The following day, September 23, the 37th Annual Products and Services Expo brought together over 400 CRP representatives and customers from across Texas, providing opportunities to showcase products, build connections, and strengthen partnerships.
Every year, these events highlight the power of collaboration and the ongoing impact of the WorksWonders Program in creating opportunities and changing lives across Texas.
