Success Stories

Meet Temika Beasley, one of PIC’s latest success stories. Temika came to PIC not too long ago as a young mother working hard to get a good job and get her life moving forward.

“It’s all about
what you make it”

Assigned to the Community Jobs Program, which connects clients to local non-profits for work experience, Temika found herself at PIC’s busy front desk. For Temika, the assignment came on the heels of several service jobs. Temika made it clear on her arrival at PIC that she intended to do what she needed to do to get a good job and provide for her family.

As Temika eagerly participated in PIC training and staffed the reception desk calmly, faithfully and with growing expertise, a full-time position opened and she applied.

Today, Temika is staffing PIC’s front desk and providing administrative support to PIC’s new Veteran Women Program.

“It’s all about what you make it,” Temika said recently. “PIC has great programs but in the end it’s up to the individual to make the difference.”
