Tyler’s City Council kicked off Wednesday’s meeting by recognizing the retirement of Diego Varona, a 4-month-old who served the city proudly for three months.
Diego was a participant in the Infants at Work program with his mother, Amber Rojas-Varona, Main Street director for the City of Tyler.
The Infants at Work program started in 2021 as an initiative to improve the work-life integration for employees by recognizing a parent’s and caregiver’s responsibility to their job and family.
The program supports city staff with the transition to parenthood by allowing them to bring their babies to work until they are 6 months old.
