Our client Pablo stopped in to thank us for helping him to obtain his birth certificate from the Dominican Republic and his identification card. Pablo completed our orientation program last week and has already found employment. “This program is wonderful,” he said. “It helps you do all the things you need to begin when you are on your own.”
Congratulations to our client, Diamond, who has been employed as a warehouse worker for two months, obtained her own apartment, and is providing for her children. Keep up the great work!
Our client Vicente, who did not have a form of identification for more than 10 years, recently obtained his ID with the help of our program. Thank you to our JCETP case manager, Rev. Bolivar Flores, for all of his help with this process.
Our client, Alvin, was recently hired as a laborer at a local dock, where he repairs U.S. Naval ships, cruise ships, and aircraft carriers. “The people here welcomed me with open arms,” he said. “I tell people to come to this program because the staff really wants to help.” Congratulations, Alvin!
