MCC and A Sense of Community

Currently, I would describe myself as being at a crossroads. I graduated college in 2023 and I have felt stuck over the past year. I am both unsure of what I want to do with my life and unable to fully commit to any given option. My work at MCC has provided a sense of stability and community while I try to navigate this trying period. The solitude and quiet this job offers have given me time to reflect and work through the difficulties I have faced over the past year. A change of pace in my line of work was also clearly needed. My previous jobs were fulfilling to a degree, but they lacked the sense of community I have found here. In general, this is something that has been absent in various aspects of my life, and I want to continue to build this sense of community after my time at MCC ends.
