Voices of Success

Unemployed to Long Time Employee

Picture
Name: Ms. Lisa Jenkins

Center: Reidsville Head Start

“I enjoy my career and am thankful for all of the opportunities Coastal Georgia Community Action has given to me."

Unemployed and no means of transportation, Ms. Jenkins enrolled her son into the Reidsville Head Start program in 1999. Once her son was enrolled, Ms. Jenkins was able to find employment but she had to work 3 jobs just to make ends meet. Ms. Jenkins started volunteering at the center and when a Bus Driver position opened up, she was encouraged to apply. CGACAA, Inc. hired her as a Bus Driver and helped her to obtain her CDL's. Ms. Jenkins was able to quit all 3 of her other jobs and was able to spend more time with her family. Mrs. Jenkins has been employed with Community Action since 2000.
