Guest Story 6: Molly

Molly just left an abusive relationship. She has not been on her own for a long time and is worried about how she’s going to make ends meet. She goes to Nourish NJ looking for acceptance and guidance. The Outreach team connects her with a local agency that offers counseling, and she starts to feel like herself again.

Armed with this new confidence, Molly is ready to start the job hunt! The Outreach staff gives her a few leads on jobs she’d qualified for, and even host a mock interview to help her practice.  To make her feel more self-assured at her real interview, the Nourish NJ team takes Molly to get a manicure and tells her she’ll do great. She walks into her job interview with her head held high. 

A few days later, Molly gets a phone call. It’s the hiring manager. She got the job! Molly enjoys the work, and her office is full of kind, capable people. Some of them have even become her friends! She feels better than she has in a long, long time. Molly is so happy the people at Nourish NJ were able to help her. More importantly, she is so happy she was able to help herself.
