DEBORAH |
Battling
drug addiction for over 30 years, Deborah was in and out of prison for most
of her life. Between having a criminal background and a lack of employable
skills, she found herself up against what seemed to be impossible odds.
Filling out dozens of applications, Deborah's search for employment seemed
hopeless as the cycle of unemployment and drug abuse repeated itself. With
the help of a program that helped employ ex-offenders, Deborah felt she
was finally granted a second chance at life. Now a full-time employee at
two different universities, Deborah works 7 days a week. Her goal is to
become a drug counselor of young adults, especially females, in order to
save them from making the same mistakes she made.
