Summary
I have had firsthand experience with incarceration and recovery. I am proof that recovery is possible. I have taken numerous cognitive thinking and CBT courses. I completed the C.L.I.F.F. program. I started courses and began accumulating hours toward a recovery coach certification. I am passionate about helping others. As I, too, was once in a bad place, I can relate to and be an example to those in need. While incarcerated, I took advantage of all the recovery tools within reach. I made the most of what I could, to better myself, and to be successful upon my release. I may not have job experience for the position I am applying for, but I have real-life experience. I hope to be a candidate for this position, as this is more than a job; it is a passion.
