Letter from Chuck Levesque, Executive Director

January 2012

There is something about midwinter that makes me eager to look for signs of new life. The novelty of the first snow and the festivities of the holidays have passed.  Perhaps amid the barren landscape, the long nights, and the slower routine of daily life, I need assurance that there are days of light and life ahead.  About now, I start thinking about my deck garden. At home, I am forcing paperwhites on the windowsill-- trying to jump-start spring. 

At work, too, I look for these signs of life.  Happily, they are there.  Jerry recently wandered into my office at Depaul House and handed me a slip of paper.  I looked at it and realized it was his paycheck-- four figures and fattened with overtime.  Jerry beamed.  He has been working security at a posh Philly condominium and with earnings like this he will leave us by the spring.  He has a new beginning in his sights.
