Green City Force was probably one of the best choices I made. My reason for joining Green City Force was because I really needed a direction or a plan. Joining GCF gave me the chance to figure stuff out while also getting certifications and a bi-weekly stipend gave me options to other green sector jobs or connections to other green-based jobs. Before I joined GCF, I was working in HVAC with my dad’s friend doing installations and rooftop units. It was good pay but off the books and it wasn’t consistent income which left me stuck and I didn’t know how to properly save money. Two of the most important things I learned here at GCF is empathy and acceptance – it made me more open-minded. I want to give big thanks to my mother, my girlfriend and brother. And also my friend Pedro for telling me to join.
