Meet Vidal Gonzales Another RMYC Success Story Vidal has always been a traditional pueblo person. As a young man growing up at Santa Clara Pueblo, he enjoyed working in the fields, hunting, fishing, and being outside. When he saw a flyer for a Corpsmember position, he thought RMYC could help him expand his personal interests
We are forever grateful for the grant from the Albuquerque Community Foundation for supporting Corpsmembers in their journey to a healthy, productive life. Funds from the Foundation are being used to support our life-skills and workforce development training programs in our Middle Rio Grande Office in Albuquerque.
