Briefly

Julia Vasquez emphasized, "They helped us with childcare, books, transportation any fees I think at the time I was doing medical assisting they paid for my scrubs." She now works for the county's Office of Diversion and Reentry Services, wanting to inspire others to turn their lives around.
Abdul Khalil recalled, "The first day when we received $250, you know, that was an amazing day for us. That was May 16th, 2023 from JFS and we supported our kids and we bought some snacks for them." He and his partner are now employed and no longer receiving assistance.
Minh Nguyen remarked on Rodiyah Tu's dedication, stating, "One thing I don't know how she managed it. She spoke no English in February 2023 and is now taking classes five days a week, working part-time all while being a mom."
