Testimonials
“I have been with TJ Swifts for about 7 months now. TJ Swift House has allowed me to participate in Job Club, Dayhabs, and Employment Services. Through my work at Job Club and Employment Service, I gained confidence and now volunteer at my local Housing Agency. This new confidence and stability have allowed me to pursue my goals, and I am now a Board Member of the Housing Agency. I enjoy my staff and all the activities that we do together. I feel secure and comfortable knowing that I have people who help me live the best life I can.”
– Marty
“I enjoy living in my own home, and my team helps me. I think of my team as my family. They help me when I need it and are always there for me. I like being able to cook with my team, and I like being able to choose what I can do and when. I know that my team is helping me reach my goals and are willing to do all they can to help me.”
