"My son is experiencing friendship for the first time. He is learning to handle the ups and downs of relating to others, and he is becoming more confident in himself."

"My son had so many negative experiences in the school system that he lost all interest in learning. Here, he has been nurtured, encouraged and challenged. He is now willing and able to learn for the first time in years, eager to make plans for his future, and finding skills in himself that he didn't know he had. He has friends and feels a part of a group for the first time—something he had totally missed out on in the past."
