Testimonials
"My daughter, Brooke, has had Goodwill as her Supported Living
Service Provider for several years now, and we are all quite pleased
with both the quality and caring of her staff. They go well beyond
what is required and really care about Brook and her roommates,
trying to keep life for them as full as possible. With Goodwill,
it truly is supported living."

"I like Goodwill, they are nice to me. They help me out. They
helped me and my wife go to a lot of places. They helped plan my
second honeymoon with my wife. We took a boat ride. Goodwill helped
me when my wife passed away. I like my staff. I like my social workers
and my coordinator."

"My 36-year old mentally retarded son, Lee, has been under
the protective wing of Goodwill for several years. Goodwill's strongest
asset is their staff. Clearly the management sees the value in well-trained,
caring housing staff and front line supervisors. The staff is responsive
and responsible with consumer welfare always at the front. It would
be difficult to imagine Lee's life without these people."
