My Why

Two years ago, I met someone who had come through the Warrior’s Heart program. I was truly impressed with what he not only put into the program but what he was able to take away and share with others. He told me that he had several attempts through other places like the VA but in 2019 he came here to Bandera and it changed his life. At that time, I said to myself, “I’m going to work there someday” and here I am.
