Staff Before and After Stories

Tami, Youth Outreach Specialist

I work as a Youth Outreach Specialist at the Plymouth TreeHouse. I mentor teens that struggle with painful abuse, abandonment, addiction, tragedy, and neglect. You wouldn’t know it looking at them, but every day I encounter the ugliness and evil of this world in the lives of these teens. Their stories, hurts, and brokenness have changed my life forever and they have completely won my heart.

The most amazing part of being a Youth Outreach Specialist at TreeHouse—I have seen lives completely transform! Through the hope of God, the support and guidance and encouragement of the staff, and the loving community TreeHouse offers, lives change! When I look into the eyes of these kids I don’t just see their pain and brokenness anymore, I see hope, new life, and a bright future. That is the hope TreeHouse brings. The hope that has completely changed my life.
