I moved to Fleming CounW in the Fall of 2011 to get away from a lifestyle of drugs and violence. I came to this area with no income, no
transportation, and no hopes of a job. Friends had asked me to come here and live with them but when I got here, I realized that I was still on a one-
way street to nothing. My morn sent me money as she could so that I could see a therapist and doctor at Comprehend and have my prescriptions
filled. I felt hopeless and helpless and hated depending on my family for income.
I started to see a therapist and doctor at Comprehend and was helped some by medications, but I wanted more than being on medications and
fighting depression constantly. I wanted income so that I could have money in my pocket, money for my own place, money to send my daughters,
and most of all, money to be able to actually go see my girls.
I met Judy, my employment specialist, in March of 2012. She would pick me up, take me to eat, we would shop some, talk a lot, and work on various items to help me
with finding work. We picked out clothes for an interview and I was apprehensive, still depressed, but excited too. I finally had a glimmer of hope that maybe my life would
change. One Thursday, Judy stopped at the house to see me, as I had not been keeping in touch with her as I had told her I would. She recognized that I was sinking deeper into
depression and told me to be dressed for an interview, she would pick me up on Friday, and we were going to find work[
I went to an interview at the Simm's Dairy Queen in Flemingsburg and was hired on the spot] I was to start work on Monday. When I told the people that I lived with that
I had a job, things changed. I was limited to how many showers I could take and how many clothes I could wash per week (one shower and one load of clothes). I called Judy
early Monday morning and told her what had happened on the home front• She told me to get ready for work and let her worry about my home situation.
Judy picked me up at 7:30am. We talked on the way to work and she reassured me that everything would work out. I got off at 5:00pm and Judy was there to pick me up.
She told me that she and Comprehend employees had an apartment for me tO rent starting today! She took me to my friend's house, I loaded my things in her car, and she took
me to my new apartment. I got all of this, a full-time job and a place of my own in a 12-hour time period. What a difference a day makes.
Judy is a great support system. She provides me with words of advice, encouragement, and helps me with everyday focus. I know if I need someone to talk with, whether
it's a big issue or a small one, she is a phone call away. I can't come up with enough words to thank the Supported Employment Program for truly changing my life.
I once looked at my life as if I was destined to stay stuck in the trials and temptations life threw at me. My life was going nowhere. Comprehend employees helped me
get my life back on track and now I am grateful to say I'm on the road to success. I am happy to have a full-time job with great support from my employer, a place of my own, and
a bright future. Supported Employment did what no other program could; it gave me my life back.. -- Joe
