South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting –March 5, 2010 <br /> <br />productive in a community. We don’t think <br />that he should be employed in the South <br />Bend Community School Corporation. <br />That’s not the place for him. You have <br />someone that’s a thief. He still needs to be <br />employed, but I don’t think that he needs to <br />be employed at Teachers Credit Union. A <br />drug dealer, you wouldn’t put him in a <br />pharmacy. My point is, they need to be <br />somewhere and they need programs like <br />Project Impact to help them with their goals <br />and plans to become more productive <br />citizens in our community. It’s only going to <br />benefit each and every one of us. Without <br />that, it’s going to hurt each and every one of <br />us. Thank you. <br /> <br />MR. TIM DAVIS, 1132 N. Meade. I’m also <br />a member of Project Impact. I think the most <br />important thing that Project Impact has done <br />in my life is made me a better employee, a <br />better person. Now I know that those <br />problem situations that came up in previous <br />job experiences, I have a better <br />understanding of how to identify and resolve <br />those issues. If it wasn’t for Project Impact, I <br />was blaming the world for my problems. <br />Blaming everyone but myself. Project <br />Impact starts from the inside and moves <br />outward. In order for you to be a better <br />employee, or to keep a job, or to get a job, <br />you have to know your limitations, you have <br />to make sure have your values and morals in <br />tact. Project Impact has helped me and a lot <br />of other people that are in the program to do <br />just that. I want to thank Project Impact and <br />the staff, and I want to thank the board for <br />allowing Project Impact to do that. <br /> <br />MR. SHANE PETERS, 1333 N. Wilber. I’m <br />an outreach coordinator for Project Impact. <br />This was a pilot project. I’m an ex-gang <br /> 8 <br /> <br />
