What Our Community
Says About Us
Hear it, in their own voices!
I was accepted into the Community Response Independent Living Program when I was 18 years old. Being in foster care was not easy. Ms. Barbara and the staff helped me learn how to be independent and take care of my apartment. I learned how to budget, shop, cook, keep a job and so much more. Thanks to Community Response, I am comfortable paying my bills, staying employed and handling my business.
