I had six kids, getting paid $16 an hour. Then somehow I saw you guys. The opportunities I can have now with this license — it's amazing.
I was incarcerated nine years, and it means a lot to know I was able to do something productive. If I could do it, you guys could definitely do it too.
That's why I'm recommending you to my fellows coming out of incarceration. What you're doing is really a blessing to those who want to change their life.
This is a really good program. Nobody gave a damn about me when I got home — this does.
It's a good feeling to feel accepted by a company when I've been turned down by so many others. I look forward to making myself another success story.
Once you all helped me, it was just boom — so fast. Thank you, Jonathan. And thank you, Emerge Career.
For real — I tell everybody about what you guys did for me.
This is the first time in a long time. Someone had a little more hope than I had.
There were so many times I wanted to quit, but Eric said, 'I know you ain't ready to quit yet.' Eric got me going — I couldn't have done this without him.
Loving the job, the 5-minute commute, the overtime, the union — all thanks to Emerge. I no longer have a job.
Being a felon has been the biggest barrier to finding a decent career, and this opportunity is really going to be life-changing.
I chose Emerge because they gave opportunity to ex-offenders that a lot of programs weren't. You can change a life and change a family's life for the better.
I told them I felt like I emerged from a life of uncertainty into a future of direction and possibility. I truly have been given a second chance.
I never thought I'd say I have a skill and a career — I thought I'd be a lifelong statistic. I'm glad I've changed and received the help.
You guys made my dream come true of always being a tractor trailer driver. They won't just find you a job — they'll find you a career.
The times I wanted to quit and you told me I'm already there, just finish it — those words are so inspiring to me.
I was ready to hang things up. You sent $50 to make up for a reimbursement I never got — that gesture is the reason my phone is on right now, and I'm doing well in trucking school.
Out of circumstances that often feel hopeless, it builds skills, structure, and a path to an honest living. My only regret is that I didn't know about it earlier.
I've been working on this for like 2 years. I'm happy, excited, anxious. What I did, everybody can do if you put your brain to it.
I'm not gonna be homeless no more. I practiced, I did everything everybody told me to do — and I didn't sell out. It's amazing.
I'm just so humbled by the support and kind words. It means a lot to have familiar faces. I will represent Emerge for life.
We're in good company.

Emerge is where ambition and purpose meet.
We've always been told tech would solve the world's biggest issues. All we've gotten is faster websites and productivity gadgets, while the most intractable social problems persist. This ends now.
