The ROSS program has been a vital component of my personal and professional growth. As a single mother, I found it challenging to seek assistance, but the resources and guidance provided by Michelle were indispensable. Through her computer course, I secured a full-time job and developed essential soft skills that have enabled me to create a brighter future for my children. When faced with uncertainty in my job training and unable to get in to assistance programs, Michelle’s unwavering support gave me the confidence to seek help and overcome those challenges. -Belinda B.
I love all the programs that you sponsor, especially the financial strategy which taught how to take control of my credit, raise my FICO score, enabled me to buy a new vehicle which I needed desperately and, I was able to raise my credit score. -Elizabeth E.
It all started a few years ago when I attended meetings offered by the Quincy Housing Authority. The ROSS Program has offered so much information, and it has taught me many basic life skills that I have put into use. From a meeting by the Manet Community Health Center, it has taught me the basics of human healthcare. In another meeting, I had learned about how to keep my credit score in good standing along with keeping my personal information safe, just to name a few. Throughout the ROSS meetings, it has shown me that it was not too late, and it was possible for anyone to get their GED certificate.-Johnny C.
