Supervisor Spiegel at Jamil Dada Character Excellence Youth Awards

Resilience is not simply overcoming adversity. It is choosing to keep moving forward with courage, purpose, and character.
Supervisor Spiegel was proud to join and speak at the Jamil Dada Character Excellence Youth Awards, an annual program of the Riverside County Workforce Development Board that recognizes 10 exceptional young people who have overcome significant barriers and demonstrated remarkable leadership and perseverance.
We also heard from keynote speaker Joanna Rees, Chair of the California Workforce Development Board, who shared an inspiring message with this year’s recipients.
Congratulations to this year’s honorees. Your accomplishments are a powerful reminder that the challenges we face do not define our future. Your strength, determination, and character do.
