"The Parachute program is a must - to our society and economical structure. It is those
individuals with motivation and attitude that will excell and carry forward. However,
we must give them the stepping stone to launch them on their way.

"Before I found Parachute I was drifting along, not knowing what I was going to do.
I couldn't get a job or keep one for a long time. Parachute gave me the skills and
confidence to get on track. With their help, I was able to find a good job and now
I can have fun without all the worries hanging over me."
Roda Y.

route to obtain good workers with minimal effort. I find Parachute to be a widely used and
necessary program and I highly recommend it."

"The staff at Parachute really made a difference. They showed me how to write a resume, prepare for an interview, and what I should do after I got the job. It was
hard work but it was really worth it. I have a great job and Parachute made it a
reality."
