"His most admirable quality is- RIK SHOWS UP!"
Rik Emaus is a friend, colleague and hero of mine. He is a seasoned, compassionate, informed and competent leader whose vision goes beyond partisan boundaries and includes young and old.
He was the tip of the spear in responding to the
challenges of Covid 19 and helped to save countless lives by working closely with the residents and staff of our nursing homes to provide protective gear and testing.
Likewise, he founded TC strong in response to an
emergency mental health crisis in our youth. I was
honored to care for three generations of children as a pediatrician in this county; Rik’s vision and work go beyond that; to be sure that every youth feels heard and supported and is confident and secure in connection, purpose and hope for their lives.
Not only is he an active Rotarian, but he has also been involved in countless organizations and activities in our community. His most admirable quality is- RIK SHOWS UP!
