Sister Service Spotlight: Job training and life skills for the formerly incarcerated

KINDNESS, CONSTANT SERVICE, INFECTIOUS ENERGY

Sr. Jan Marie Villalobos was recently recognized by her colleagues and the program participants at the Center for Living and Learning (CLL) in Van Nuys. This agency provides a range of services for individuals wanting to re-enter the workforce. Those hoping to rebuild their lives after incarceration, substance abuse treatment, or homelessness face numerous barriers to re-integration into society and the economy. To help overcome these barriers, CLL provides several services, including apprenticeships, job readiness preparation, employment support services and health services.

The occasion was the first anniversary of her full-time service there, and here are some of the comments she received…
“You bring a special light to CLL. Thank you for always making my days brighter and for all you do…”
“Thank you for being so kind and welcoming when I first came here. I am so grateful for you and hope all your days are the best.”
“Your energy is beyond infectious!”
“Your soul is kind, your service constant, and actions love-inspired. Thank you!”
