To whom it may concern:

Willaim Cteasent was employed as drug and alcohol counselor with Shepherds House, Inc. He worked at our Substance Abuse Program (SAP) located inside the Shelby County Detention Center. Mr. Cleasent had a 20-person case load. His daily job responsibilities included: treatment plan development and monthly treatment plan updates, weekly progress notes, psychosocial assessments, group counseling, facilitating evidence-based curriculum, and management of the 60 bed SAP program. Mr. Cleasent was a great counselor/employee. He was knowledgeable, professional, reliable, and compassionate with the clients. He performed his job responsibilities promptly and with accuracy, and enthusiasm. I am confident that Mr. Cleasent will continue to conduct himself in the same manner and continue to be an excellent counselor/employee as he continues through his career.
