Our House clients are finding success in all areas of their lives this year! Doc came to Our House one year ago after exiting prison and starting his life from scratch. He had no ID and nothing to his name, but our Career Center quickly set Doc up with the proper documents and helped him open a bank account. Doc completed a term in our job training program working at the guard shack and doing maintenance to gain work experience that landed him a full-time job as an apartment complex groundskeeper. Doc is able to receive discounted rent at the complex, and with the $5,000 in savings he racked up while in the Shelter, he is ready to move out on his own! Doc utilized our physical health services and his case manager to work on his overall well-being while here and dedicated himself to Career Center classes like Cooking Matters to gain a well-rounded skill set. Doc feels proud of being able to mentor younger residents in the Shelter, and more than anything, Doc has learned patience since coming to Our House!
