Testimonials
Angel Wheatley, TIPLR Participant
"Within a year I am about to be discharged off probation... They have helped me bring out strengths that I never knew that I had. They have helped me accomplish so much in such little time, including attending church on a regular basis, getting employment for the first time in four years, starting my own business, which is the cleaning service, attending informative meetings, and speaking in front of large groups such as this one, and just overall really believing in myself."
