Reinstate Melissa Johnstone at Family Promise
The Issue
Dear Family Promise Board of Directors and Decision-Makers,
Melissa Johnstone is more than just an employee at Family Promise – she has been a pillar of support for us, the residents. Her departure has left a void in our community, and we are requesting her immediate reinstatement.
Over the years, Melissa has become an integral part of our daily lives. With unwavering dedication, she has served as a source of trust, compassion, and reliability during our most vulnerable moments. Her commitment to helping us cannot be overstated, as she treated each person with dignity and respect, often going above and beyond what her role required.
Many of us came to Family Promise during challenging times, carrying the weight of homelessness, instability, and uncertainty about our futures. Melissa’s presence provided comfort and hope—she ensured that Family Promise was not just a shelter, but a true home and community for those in need. Her ability to advocate on our behalf and address our concerns was unparalleled.
The decision to let Melissa go impacts us all. We feel the absence of her already .Her termination has not only affected the morale and well-being of residents but is also a disservice to the mission Family Promise strives to uphold. As residents, we recognize that having someone like Melissa is essential to achieving the organization’s goals of transforming lives and helping families regain community stability.
With this petition, we stand united in our call to action. We urge you to listen to the voices of those directly affected by this decision. Reinstating Melissa Johnstone is not just a personal request; it is a plea for maintaining the quality and integrity of care that Family Promise is known for. We believe that her return would restore hope and stability in our community, allowing her to continue the impactful work she was dedicated to.
Support our cause by signing this petition to bring Melissa Johnstone back to Family Promise, ensuring a brighter, more supportive future for all those who call it home.
