This position has impacted my life tremendously. I assumed that because we are a family with only one vehicle that I would have to work around the other family member’s schedule. Thanks to the GRIT Project connecting me with a work-from-home job, I can provide for my family AND still spend time with them.

The Future Plans assessment really impacted me by opening my eyes to other careers that are out there that I didn’t know prior to taking the assessment.

I’ve been a cosmetologist for many years. Medical benefits are really expensive. The GRIT Project connected me with a work-from-home job through Pearl Interactive. I now have medical benefits and it works with my schedule. —
