In part 2 of our conversations with Dreambuilders Care, we chat first with Dave, a service user at Dreambuilders, followed by Kylie, the day manager of the service. Dave discusses his challenges with alcohol dependence and how he recently reached the milestone of being 1 year sober. Dave talks about the importance of asking for help when you need it, how Dreambuilders has been a great help to him and many others, and his relationship with his family. Kylie discusses her role at Dreambuilders and some of the challenges she has faced during her life, raising her kids as a single mother, and re-entering the workforce, firstly as a volunteer, and then as an employee at Dreambuilders. Kylie discusses going to TAFE and completing her Diploma in Community Services, and talks about the satisfaction she gets from seeing people in need get assistance from Dreambuilders and how it brightens their day. These were two inspiring conversations with people who have overcome various adversities and come out the other side stronger for it.
