“I am a formerly incarcerated woman who came to Fresh Start for assistance. After finding employment, I had no means of transportation to get from my residence to the training site. My social worker provided me with enough Lyft codes to secure transportation the entire time of my training. I am now working full-time in a job that I love and it reminds me that second chances are important to women like myself. I am grateful to Fresh Start.”
-Kathy, a Fresh Start woman
