<p>Becci&#8217;s testimony was inspiring and encouraging.  She is working hard to be the woman and mother God has planned for her to be.  She showed us that our clients are benefiting from RETA&#8217;s services and support, and all of those who contribute to RETA play a role in that.  We hope to see you all there again next year (and feel free to bring a friend)!</p>
