vidual and group counseling. Finally, I accepted a job at NYC Department of Correction as a Substance Abuse Counselor a Mayor Koch's program. My motto, "God sent me to bring you out of the dark into the light". I counseled Adolescent/Adult male/female inmates for 18 years with substance abuse issues or related charges,and assisted them with alternative to incarceration programs. Then in 2007, I became a Peace Officer and became an Investigator for a NYCDOC. I have a few more years before retiring, so I am working on my next journey to go to Law School next year. To eventually, be a voice for those whom cannot be heard.
Thank you. God Bless...
