Frey-Angel was the CEO while the organization faced difficulties during the recession over the past five years.

“We are focused on continuing to expand opportunities for clients,” Board Member Marlon Griffith told the Gazette. “We believe strongly that there’s many other things people can do beyond landscaping and custodial work, if given the opportunity.”
