Employee Testimonials
Melody (Residential Counselor)
“The hiring process was a wonderful experience. They did a telephone interview and an in person interview where they asked questions. Not just what I expect from a job, but asked about situations and how I would handle it. This process was important to me because that told me that Friends Aware isn’t just about getting bodies to fill a position. They want people who have a heart for this work. Every day when I go home, I know I have made a difference. And every day these individuals have made a difference in my life. I am here for good and ever now.”

“We care so much for the individuals who attend our program. I get excited when they tell me they had the best day ever. It’s a fantastic place and I know if anyone needs a place, Friends Aware is here for you. We make individuals feel at home the moment they walk in the door.”

“Seeing people being independent and living up to their potential is the biggest reward I get while working at Friends Aware. Everyone deserves a chance to do what they want to do and I enjoy helping them with these opportunities .”
