Hank Crapser: Single Dad, Former Addict, Helping Others

EVERYDAY IS FATHER’S DAY –

Nov. 19, 2023 – He hands out his business card with pride, excited to speak about the work he does. He feels obligated to help those in need, as so many tried to do for him for so long, he said.

The walls inside Crapser’s house are covered in pictures of him and his son, Henry, now 10 years old. One picture shows Crapser holding Henry as a baby, and a recent photo hangs on the wall with Henry in a Seahawks jersey, arms around his Dad. The house is filled with plants in the living room, and two friendly faces greet you as you come in: their dog, Jasper, and cat, Kelso.

Crapser says if you would have told him 20 years ago that he would own a house and have a government job, he would have thought you were crazy.
