#CDCStaffFeature: Meet Lorraine she is a Case Manager at one of our community properties. We asked Lorraine: ‘why do you do what you do?’ and she answered this: Before I worked here, I would come and volunteer and cut hair for the ladies, and I always left so happy. I really loved the clients. I think it is really a calling. I didn’t think I would come and end up working for the Dream Centre. It was after some big life circumstances, that I realized I didn’t want to wait t...o do missions. In many ways, it was ‘now is the time...not later.’ Lorrainethank you for choosing NOW to help restore lives! Leave a word of encouragement for Lorraine below as she does some incredible work to support those who are recovering from addiction.

We are ready to deck the Dream Centre out for Christmas!It is important to us that our clients have a cheery environment for the holiday seasonand even though we can’t have volunteers help us with decorating (like usual!) our staff is making sure it still happens!
