Dear Friends

 

Happy New Year to all! The holiday season has come to a close and now new doors for opportunity will open.

 

It's a great time to sweep away unwanted routines from 2011 and consider new hobbies, volunteer opportunities and even maybe better habits for the coming year. One step at a time is all it takes.

 

At SEARCH, our clients move from the streets, into jobs and safe stable housing. There's always a first step. And the most ambitious goals are the ones that take the most patience to reach. Earl Moore knows what it takes to start small and move to a more complex job. At SEARCH, we say, the first jobs (even if they aren't ideal) help create a lasting job history. Please read on about Earl's new outlook and second chance.

A SEARCH Client With the Right Attitude

Earl Moore
Nominated by: Randa Wynn, Employment Services Case Manager
Four days after Earl Moore was released from Texas State prison, he arrived at SEARCH. That same day, he enrolled in our services and started working for one of our partners who is a felon-friendly employer.

Earl immediately stood out as an exceptional employee. He worked well within the culture of his new job and his new employer.
