A select few people by the usernames of Jason J, Amanda, Theresa Romans, Leeland Mark and Coalition Members have been accusing Project Touch of things that couldn't be any more false. For that, I'm sorry that these select few have wasted their time and yours having read their madness. These people by the above usernames are prior clients that have been a program geared towards helping people that are homeless and or in need of assistance and to help people get back on their feet from being in an unfortunate situation.

With all the many people that this organization helps, their is always those select few that want a free place to stay for long periods of time, without trying to benefit themselves. This program wasn't implemented for people to take advantage of the system and get a free ride. The help that the program gets from very generous donations and little help from local business's and Churches also aren't donating their time and money too see selfish people get out of contributing to society and moving forward in life.

The goal of this program is for people to not move backward but move forward. unfortunately when the program has given these individuals many opportunities to move forward, more then Some deserve, if they don't fulfill the opening rules and agreement when going into the program that they all read and sign, the program is forced to make a not so easy decision to move on without these people in the program. As much as project touch would love to see as many people as possible succeed in life, and bounce back from unfortunate situations as to lack of employment, loss of a living situation, etc, the organization has to focus their attention on the people that want to be helped with the additional effort from themselves. You can't help those who don't want to help themselves. If anyone may have any questions or concerns... By all means shoot a comment on here. Thanks for your time.
