Samuel Bernard

Outreach Specialist

Hello my name is Samuel Bernard. After losing my mother to cancer, my life spiraled out of control and I fell into a life of heavy drug use and I became homeless for the first time in my life. Out of that darkness came a light that saved my life. CHR is so much more to me then just a career for me. Meeting Lu on outreach as a participant in the program changed my life and then again when I was offered an opportunity for employment with their organization. From volunteer to now full time employee I have got my life back on track. I am back into a place of my own and now have the chance to help give back to the people of my community and share not only my story but also give people the help that saved my life.
