Success Stories
Bridget Dowling …
Bridget Dowling has set a new and significant milestone for Old Pueblo Community Services. She is the first client to enter our Transitional Housing program and move all the way through to become an owner of an Old Pueblo affordable home. Bridget has achieved for herself the goal Old Pueblo holds for all whom we serve – to move them to self-sufficiency.
Before Oasis I was lost, but now I have truly found a new beginning. This is the first time since 1964 that I have been drug and alcohol free for two continuous years. With the help of divine assistance, Oasis has taught me how to open a door and look within. And I have discovered how great life can be without drugs.
Scott McLemon’s story is not an uncommon one. His drug-related activities led ultimately to his incarceration. In 2003, because of his drug use, his girlfriend left him with his best friend taking Scott’s infant son with them. He lost hope to the point he didn’t much care what happened to him and began stealing.
“I went through Old Pueblo Families program and through homeless court. They paid off fines I had since I was 18, I got rid of a warrant that I had since I was 18, and they helped me get back on my feet.
