The lifestyle Greg had lived led him to prison, where he had time to think and make decisions that would have to be walked out once he was released.
One of his first stops upon release was the Western Maryland Consortium. The staff at WMC connected with a potential employer, entering Greg into a Work Experience (WEX) program. During this program, employers are incentivized to “try on” potential employees at no risk, as wages and more are assumed by the Consortium.
Today, Greg remains self-directed, engaged in his faith community and programs that support him in a healthy lifestyle, and enjoys a strong network of great people who encourage him.
As he prepares to celebrate 2-years of sobriety, Greg has reported that he is thankful for those around him, including WMC staff who assisted in his Work Experience opportunity. Greg’s second chance is off to a great start and his future looks bright!
