Real Stories, Real Impact
LaTarra O., Appeals Department, Austin, TX
"I love working in the appeals department at TWC because every day is different and the work is exciting! The leadership team is very supportive, and they are always providing training and refreshers to help us perform at our best. That is so invaluable, because the tips and new information help me to complete tasks accurately and efficiently. I also like the opportunity to meet challenges and serve Texans on a daily basis."
Emily M., Vocational Rehabilitation, Waco, TX
"After 20+ years in social services, I finally found my home in Vocational Rehabilitation (VR). It's a joy to help people remove barriers and gain independence, and I'm lucky to have such an incredible team by my side. I wish I had found this field earlier in my career, but I'm making the most of it now. I'm also so thankful that VR is helping me further my education. By the end of the year, I'll have my master's degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and my Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) certification. I found this path a little late in life, but I've never been more excited about the future."
Chip K., Information Technology, Austin, TX
"Serving as a PeopleSoft Systems Administrator for TWC is deeply rewarding, as it pairs rigorous technical stewardship with a vital public mission. While my daily focus centers on complex enterprise architecture - maintaining high system availability, optimizing database performance, and safeguarding core data - the true gratification lies in its downstream impact. Every patch applied and bottleneck resolved directly empowers agency staff to reliably deliver critical unemployment, rehabilitation and career services to millions of Texans."
