Crystal Vorabouth (HHSA Child Welfare Services)

Crystal Vorabouth (Protective Services Worker) was thanked for her work with a mother of two.

"I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for me and my family. I am still clean, of course, and in school. I broke up with my boyfriend since he decided to relapse. I am super proud of myself, it would seem I have really handled my codependency issues! I am so full of my own empowerment.

"I tell people frequently that CPS saved my life because it really has. I am really in a place where I can be present for the boys.

"So with the death of Whitney Houston, which I identify with her as an addict and a mother, I wanted to thank you for being apart of my resurrection from a miserable life dependent on drugs and a dirtbag man. I am still one bad choice away from becoming like Whitney but with all the effort I have put in to this life I live now I continue to choose the path I am on now."
