The Clinic!

Crown Counseling, better known as "the clinic", is now at about month  5 in the licensing process.  You might think licensing is moving slowly but realistically it is ahead of schedule.  Everything is in place for a permanent  license minus one last step, the bank account. 
So what about visas?  We now have the temporary work visa (F Visa) that will help us get through until Todd gets the license to get the work Visa.  What does that mean?  It means we don't have to travel in and out of the country this month!  It means we paid $500 this month for the 4 F Visas and will have to pay another $500 for work Visas when the license comes through.  Expensive Process.
Good News!  The clinic is up and running!  Todd and his co workers are busy training volunteers, mentoring counseling students and seeing hurting folks.  PTL
Please continue to lift up licensing and Visas!
