Ready, Willing & Working (RWW) welcomes Carlton Brown as their new case manager for the “Men in Blue.” Mr. Brown has a Masters in Social Work from Howard University and currently works at the Perry School Community Service Center, Inc. where he helps families and individuals with substance abuse issues, economic empowerment and parent mentoring. Mr. Brown will work with the RWW men three days a week focusing on life-skills training, relapse prevention, and individual counseling.

“Thanks to the generous sponsors of our annual fundraiser ‘Magic & Miracles’ we are able to contract with Mr. Brown to provide supportive services that are key to the men’s success in staying drug-free and self-sufficient. Special thanks go out to The Squires Group for donations totaling nearly $25,000,” says Patty Brosmer, president of Ready, Willing & Working.

Director of Operations Andrew Lee added, “Mr. Brown is a great addition to the program. He has led the group in engaging discussions and already signed three men up for GED placement testing.”

Ready, Willing and Working looks forward to many successes working with Mr. Brown.

Other generous Magic & Miracles sponsors included National Capital Bank, the Heritage Foundation, Capitol Hill Exxon, Judy Wood, CPA and CHAMPS.
