Pretrial Staff Highlight: Ciara Lee & Desiree Stewart

Meet Ciara Lee and Desiree Stewart, two dedicated CASES staff modeling the importance of administrative work.  

Ciara Lee manages the front desk reception for 4th floor 151 Lawrence street, so she is front and center to receive all Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team and Supervised Release clients. Ciara is exceptionally professional, friendly, reliable and upbeat. Staff know they can always count on her to relate messages and provide support. She is also incredibly kind, and she brings a great sense of humor to challenging work. 

Desiree Stewart is the Manager of Administrative Services at CASES Harlem office. She has been a constant source of support and guidance for staff and clients. Whether answering questions, training our program assistants, or simply being there when someone needs help, she shows up with patience, kindness, and knowledge. With Desiree, there’s no such thing as a silly question—she makes everyone feel valued and heard. 

CASES is proud to have Ciara and Desiree on our team, helping our offices run smoothly and making everyone feel welcome.
