My courses were consistently oversubscribed and when I left, there was a waiting list for a course that had not yet been scheduled.Providence Services Corporation honored me in its company newsletter for the courses I taught, and the principles I taught empowered a state manager to negotiate for funding for a program from the state of Nevada. A physician at a prison in Georgia used my materials to train her staff.I also presented these materials at a university's Women's Day events and at two different statewide professional organizations.I started out as a half-time Case Manager in the Prisoner Re-Entry Program and half time as a GED tutor. As a result of my performance, the grantor tripled the size of our grant.I worked closely with Parole Agents, the support services worker, and other community providers, maintaining excellent communication and collaboration. I provided holistic services, helping clients connect with needed community resources in the months-long absence of a community supports worker. I set up a clubhouse for eligible parolees and recruited and trained two case aides from the client population. Show less
