Testimonials

"Chrysalis has changed my life and continues to. It not only provided resources to help me get the job I love at a Santa Monica-based car dealership, it also helped me maintain this job through the retention support group and counseling services. I've now been at my job for over a year, and I have been promoted two times!!"

"Chrysalis has been instrumental in getting me a position in an established company, with great benefits. My employer is a company that treats all their employees with dignity and respect. I am very fortunate."

"It's a lot more than all of the resources Chrysalis offers. I needed someone to believe in me. I didn't believe that I was worth anything. Chrysalis is more than getting a job and a paycheck. It's getting your dignity back. What I will never forget is how the staff and volunteers had an understanding of me as a person - they knew how to motivate me, even when I thought I could never do it. I am so very grateful. How am I ever going to repay everyone for their help?"

"As I've been putting the pieces of my life back together, employment has been one of the largest pieces of the puzzle. I had a hard time asking for help. I wanted to do everything myself, to be independent. But I did need help. Chrysalis' staff made me feels comfortable. I trusted them. They helped me get a good job and stay employed for three years. I now have my own apartment and I am proud to be able to raise my daughter."
