The Smallest Rewards

Gloria Pitts worked as an administrative assistant. In 2002 she lost her job. “At first I was glad I was let go, then I got very depressed.” She thought, “Why me?” Then two illnesses in her family kept her from going back to work for three years. When she tried to get a job it was difficult.

She came to the ASSETS program thinking she would do something secretarial, but she realized she always wanted to work with children.

Discover how Gloria transitioned her skills and is now in the ASSETS Child Care Program earning praise and recognition. Gloria loves working with the toddlers. “Every day I leave with laughter in my heart,” she says joyfully.
