Working at Providence is a family tradition. Joining Providence came naturally for Aaron. His dad, uncle, brother, cousin and wife all work for Providence Montana. “I started volunteering with Providence after high school because my family and friends had good things to say,” he said. “I stocked rooms on inpatient floors and helped with office tasks at St. Patrick House.” As Aaron, St. Patrick House manager in Missoula, Montana, moves on to work for the Montana National Guard, he reflects on ten years with Providence. "I’m thankful to have been surrounded by such a devoted team who always rose to the occasion. We serve such an amazing mission at St. Patrick House and meet so many wonderful people, many of whom shine their brightest when they’re going through such hard times,” Aaron said.
