For today’s Testimonial Tuesday, we’re honored to share this heartfelt message from one of our clients’ guardians:

"Opportunity House provided a whole new light in the life of my daughter. She would not be as successful as she has been without their assistance. I can't say enough about the support they provided for my daughter."

A huge thank-you to our dedicated staff for showing up every day and making a real difference in the lives of those we serve.

It's Testimonial Tuesday! Today, we are spotlighting a client who shared the following quote about our staff and their experience living in a group home:

"I think the staff is great. I enjoy being able to go out into the community independently. I really like watching or going to the movies and making pizzas at the house. At the workshop, the jobs I enjoy doing are packing and sealing."

Hearing our clients express the joy that our organization can provide for them makes everything we do truly worth it!
