The StoryField #22: The One with Brad Allen and It all started with a letter from Texas.
The Company of the Rock House:
· Has 500 employees;
· Is in 8 locations across Texas; and
· Has provided life skills needs and training to adults with intellectual disabilities in Texas for over 40 years.
Rock House all began in 1978 when a letter came across Brad’s desk.
Tune in today to see how the Rock House grew from humble beginnings in Stephenville to daily serving almost 500 families across Texas.
When it officially opened in 1979 – individuals with mental retardation lived in state institutions, not in the community. Rock House help change that by opening one of the first private group homes in Texas.
Business leaders – you will not want to miss some of the secret ingredients that made Rock House so great.
Also, Brad gave us his secret as to how a business can get and keep enough employees to care for 500 people. Here it is—
Matthew 9:37-38: Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Thank you, Brad, for giving us such an honest behind the scenes look at your story and God’s favor in your life and business.
