Student Spotlight: Cindi Borden (’17)

Cindi is a Fall River student who received the employee of the year award from the Seven Hills Behavioral Health Foundation this past year. Cindi has worked for Seven Hills Behavioral Health for over 10 years. She was chosen as Employee of the Year because of the impressive contributions she has made to the agency and for the clients, as well as the tremendous personal accomplishments she has achieved in her studies.  

Over the past 10 years, Cindi Borden has worked tirelessly as a clinician for Seven Hills Behavioral Health. Cindi has a friendly, gentle, easy-going spirit and selflessly supports all those around her. She approaches each day with gratitude, appreciation, and respect for the ability to do what she loves – help and encourage others. The way in which she naturally brings comfort to those around her, enables her to de-escalate situations often before they arise. Cindi is known for treating every person with dignity and respect, organizing site-wide opportunities that promote fun and fellowship, and taking on new challenges with open-minded optimism.

For years, Cindi has been supporting and encouraging others to take on new challenges, create change, believe in themselves, and overcome daily challenges. This year, she embraced this philosophy for herself as she has welcomed new challenges in her new supervisory role as the Coordinator of Recovery Services and in beginning her education towards a Masters in Social Work at Boston University. It is her ability to consistently motivate and engage others in a positive and empowering way that makes Cindi Borden our choice for employee of the year.
