    Jose Ortiz's addiction cost him everything - his job, family and home.  He came to The HOPE Program because he wanted to change his life and contribute something to society.  Through HOPE, he was placed at an internship at Animal Care and Control of NYC.  After he completed his internship, they could not let him go. 

    Jose has been employed at Animal Care and Control of NYC since 2007.  He has received three promotions to his current position of Supervisor.  Jose says that this is his dream job and is passionate about working with animals. 

    Read the NY Daily News coverage of how Jose helped to rescue an elderly handicap New Yorker's only companion.

    hope_graduatesOn Thursday June 18th, Trae Bodge, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Three Custom Color Specialists, held an Image Workshop for HOPE students.  Trae fielded questions from students on cosmetics and how to apply them.  Students happily left her color studio feeling confident and eager to use their complimentary samples.  As they are preparing for work, they want to make the best first impression.  Trae's generosity will certainly help make this possible.  

    This summer, a HOPE intern will begin an internship at Three Custom Color Specialists.

    Read Trae's blog post on her experience with the HOPE students.
