CSI, what does that mean to me?

"It means HOPE!!"

This is a testimonial by David Ange. Thanks for the collective action that made this happen!

"Hope for my future. I was going in a downward spiral. I lost my job in January 2009. I was not eligible for unemployment. I was over $4000 behind in child support. I was looking at jail time for not being able to pay. Then Judge Ruth ordered me to the CSI program. Thank you, Judge Ruth!!

I contacted Mr. Dennis Gaddy to enroll. It turned my life around. After my initial meeting with the CSI staff I was not too sure, but as I continued to attend, my opinion changed. Mr. Gaddy stated that CSI was a non-profit organization. I disagree with that partially. The profit in the program was that I had a outlet of people to talk with who understood my situation and my concerns. They were another set of eyes to help me in my employment needs.

Now that I have found employment, Dennis, Sheldon and the CSI team has helped me in getting a car through Wheels4Hope. I am getting to be self-sufficient again. I thank God every day for Dennis Gaddy and his team at CSI. And a special thanks to my CSI mentor Sherwood Jackson. "
