Crossroads Testimonies
The Graduating Class of July 2020
Over the course of several months, each one of these men has worked hard to complete the rigorous Crossroads program. Now they are graduating with a new set of life skills and hope for the future. Because we couldn’t gather in person, we want to give these incredible clients a chance to share their testimonies with you now.
