The formerly homeless client of the Gateway Center said that overcoming addiction was the beginning of changing his life for the better—ultimately creating the pathway for him to get his GED and enroll in Toastmasters to become a public speaker.
“I listened to my counselors, I did what they told me to do got on my knees and prayed and I took it off my hands and gave it to God,” said Dupree.
