Our House’s job training program offers hands-on experience in
specific career fields like child care, security, and facilities maintenance. Job trainees learn and practice the skills associated with
these fields in internships on the campus of Our House. They
meet once a week on Monday mornings in the Shelter where their
supervisor, Director of Client Services Justin Sanders, will read a
mission statement called “What We Stand For.” When asked to
tell the group what he stood for, Travis wrote a thoughtful, sincere
poem that describes not only what he believes, but also what any
hard-working resident may learn by making the commitment to
complete the Our House program.
