“I love my job, stopped qualifying for food stamps, and am learning to live on my new income.”
“I never would have thought that there are people in this world who care as much as the staff at CLIMB. They set me up for success from the minute I walked in the door, on fire and ready for change in my life. And I know the other participants in my program will be my friends for life. Before CLIMB, I lost my son for 15 months and was struggling to make a happy home. I finally packed it all up and came to Casper not knowing anyone. Now I keep saying, ‘pinch me, wake me up.’ I love my job, stopped qualifying for food stamps, and am learning to live on my new income. I’ll start college again this year to get my associate’s degree in substance abuse counseling. This is the first time in my whole life I haven’t wanted to run away.”
