“What I love most about my role is being able to witness lives changing. It’s an honor to watch new beginnings, reunited families, and renewed hope in the lives of our clients. I also love being a part of a staff that operates like a family. I started working here in my thirties, and the older staff at that time taught me how to be a dad. Now I get to do that with our younger staff. It’s pretty amazing.”
