Press Conference Governor Perdue at Step Up


Step Up is an organization I am PROUD to be affiliated with in this community. They help those in a less fortunate situation learn how to effectively interview, work, pay taxes, budget and pay bills as well as many other day to day skills that some of us take for granted. They call it their life skills program. And when you graduate they help you to buy your own home. The Governor graced Step Up yesterday to use them as an example in the community on how the private sector can impact the recidivism rate for those incarcerated for criminal activity. Thanks to Molly, Jennie, Al and Katherine for introducing me and letting me be a part of such a special organization that contributes so much to our community.
