(From Blanchard Valley Center)

If there ever were an image for the phrase, ‘beaming with pride, this is it.

Meet Emily. Emily just finished her two-year commitment with Project LIFE, gaining the skills she needs to be successful in the workforce.

Why does this matter? People like Emily WANT the opportunity to work. People like Emily WANT to be productive members in the community. People like Emily WANT to make friends and live a life they want to live.

Emily has put in the work, learning what it takes to be a good employee – showing up to work on time, having a good attitude, taking initiative, and so much more.

We are so proud of Emily and wish her the absolute best as she continues her journey into the workforce. We look forward to hearing about her successes in the future because we know she’s determined!
