Thanksgiving is almost here, and before I eat too much turkey and fall into a food coma, I want to reflect on a few reasons I am thankful for CLA-LA.
I think of our recent Prayer Breakfast, where hundreds gathered together to pray for issues affecting our clients: homelessness, mental illness, the effects of prison sentences and broken families.

I think of our volunteers, who give generously of their time and abilities to serve clients. They serve with such enthusiasm and delight that one can't help but feel right at home at our legal clinics.
I think of our clients, who share their life experiences with us and in the process teach us lessons in compassion, mercy and grace.

I think of my staff, who wear a million different hats and work tirelessly to care for our clients and rally our volunteers.
I think of our board members, partners and supporters, who make it possible to do justice in Los Angeles.
I am grateful for every person connected to CLA-LA. Together we get to see God change lives in our county, and it is an honor to experience this with you. I am thankful.
