How did you get involved?
This was the first work I did as an attorney. I found out about the project through my involvement with CLS at Coastal, and knew that I wanted my work as an attorney to reflect my Christian beliefs. I view my practice as a ministry and desire to help people through it. Working with the students in recovery at the City Rescue Mission was a natural way to fulfill that goal.
How can someone else get involved?
