So a dresser and a dining room table make it feel like a home. If people think its more like a home theyll probably longer going to stay there. These pieces here we train veterans, returning citizens and the homeless much its actually pretty simple. They found the need and they filled it. I have daughter who works in new york for a number of years working with returning citizens. Reentry programs back into society. And what she told me the biggest problem they have they just dont have skills. If you dont have skills youre not going to make a wage above minimum wage. And she got to me. Reporter program also breaking stereotypes for some that believe that struggling is just about being lazy or wanting an easy way out. Very first day of the septa strike i got an email from sponsoring agent to this program with these two guys saying dont expect them to come probably going to be walking over 5 miles. They were here before me. And theyve been here every day. Reporter jeremiah is one of the people in the program who says its changing his life. This program right here means pretty much everything to me. Its actually a way forme to get an apartment and eat more than noodles every night, so you definitely need something that you can make more than minimum wage with. Reporter although he didnt identify himself as veteran the Program Helping veterans was clearly important to him. Make a sacrifice for them, because of course everybody should know they made sacrifice for this country and everything you do even if you dont like it or you do, youre alloweed to it because a veteran went out there and put it in place for you. Reporter honestly with the training these men are receiving, pretty quickly they could probably leave the program, go get a job and potentially make more money but thats not what furnishing a future is about. They recognize that this program is helping them so they can first have responsibility to help others in need for goodness sake.
