Review

conversations and working together for a better future. A positive future picture, especially for their children, largely provides the motivation for change for these pilot investigators. They are working to create that future picture for themselves and for our community. They are ready to serve in whatever roles they can to help make our community a better place. With the knowledge and hard work they have done as investigators they are ready to sit at the decision-making tables of boards and commissions, participate in forums of discussion, and be consulted about life in Abilene and effective ways of making a difference for people in poverty. It was truly an honor to help facilitate this pilot group. The potential for impact on the life of our community of Getting Ahead is immeasurable. It will take much work, commitment, and time, but it is doable. I am excited to see the way life has changed for these four pilot members, and hope that many more investigators will follow. Thanks for your help and work in these efforts. Let us boldly continue forward! --Brad Carter, pilot group facilitator; executive director, Connecting Caring Communities

Review

WOW! I hope you find these words just as encouraging as I did. It is so energizing for me to facilitate Getting Ahead and provide training in Bridges Out of Poverty. So far, I have presented the Bridges Out of Poverty training to approximately 75 people in our county; future training dates have been scheduled. Thank you for providing such great material. You have provided a whole new perspective, giving meaning to the work that I do. I can t thank you enough! --Tammy B. Schoonover, ACSW, LSW
