Inhaltsangabe

At the age of 11 I got involved with the juvenile criminal justice system. Richard Ramos was one of the few people in my life that was supportive and unconditional. He would come to my house any time my mother was having difficulty with me. He would hunt me down on the streets to get me to school or back home. With the support of Mr. Ramos I was able to transition from offender to a young woman ready to take on the world. I received my Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice from Long Beach State University and Masters in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I now work as a Therapist/Social Worker with Orange County's most vulnerable youth and families. I am truly grateful for all your work Mr. Ramos on a personal and professional level. I know your words will touch the lives of youngsters just like they once touched me. - Gabriela Hernandez, MSW, Clinical Social Worker, Orange County Mental Health "I met Richard Ramos at a crucial time in my teenage years. Meeting him opened my eyes to what a strong Latino man really looked like. His leadership during that time, and to this day, has changed my life, as well as, the lives of countless others. I now work with at-risk youth and have my own business in Ventura, Ca." - Phillip Rendon, CEO TKL Tattoo, Ventura, Ca. "I was a misdirected youth involved in a gang and going in the wrong direction until I met Richard Ramos. Because of his care, concern and counseling, my life was transformed. I'm now married, raising my children and have a great job. Thank you Mr. Ramos for all you did for me and so many other Latino youth!" - Ruben Venegas, Accountant, Santa Barbara, Ca.
