Hello Everyone,
I just completed my first official day working at the Bridge House. I was given a tour of the Grace House, The Warehouse and the Car Lot. I met with the staff members that will coordinate the appointments with the residents. I also met with three of the residents and conducted prelimary interviews for the Outcome Surveys. In additon to this, I was trained on how to input the data once the interviews are completed.
I really enjoyed meeting with the residents. I found them to be very grateful and very open about their experiences. I gave them words of encouragement and a hug. I learned a lot from talking with these ladies. First of all, they are glad to be sober and secondly, they are figthing to get their life in order. My prayer for them is that they will be given a second chance from society once they complete their intial program.
I think it is imperative that society wakes up, embrace and welcome back individuals that have made a bad choice but are not trying to live a productive life.
