【点睛】

In my late 20s, my world turned upside down in just 72 hours. My husband Doug worked at local construction

company, while I was a quality-control inspector for JanSport, a backpack manufacturer located in Wenatchee,

Washington. We were both extremely hard workers, but we could not work our way out of a declining economy.

Doug was laid off on Wednesday and, two short days later, I learned that my entire plant had decided to relocate to

Mexico to save money.

I didn’t react well to the news. I wanted to find a place to hide, but that wasn’t an option. I was scared when

my husband got his lay-off notice on Wednesday. I was still suffering from the uncertainty of how we would make

ends meet when I walked into work that fateful Friday and was told our plant was closing. At that point, I was

absolutely shocked, angry, scared beyond description, and at a loss as to what we were going to do.

Although money had been tight in our home for some time, our family had made a smart decision a few years

earlier that saved us from disaster. It had taken us two years, but we managed to save an emergency fund. In the

end, losing all of our family’s income sources in the space of three days didn’t break us. It made us stronger.

Instead of hiding from my problem, I picked myself up and decided to help improve my family’s

circumstances. There was actually a hidden blessing in the whole storm for me. Because my plant had closed

down, I was eligible to go to school under Job Training Partnership Act. Was it embarrassing to ask for help from

the state to improve myself? Sure. But in studying to be an accountant I was making a better future for my family

for years to come. I have also paid that help forward countless times, contributing time and money to the

community and sharing my story to help others help themselves.
