Success Stories

One of the greatest challenges in life is overcoming obstacles and setbacks.  We all have experienced them at one time or another in our lives.  Some of us have overcome tremendous difficulties in our lives. Do you have a remarkable success story?  Did you grow up with challenging or adverse circumstances?  Did you face circumstances of poverty, addiction, foster home, ward of the state, single parent home, parental illness, trauma, parental abandonment or death, abuse or neglect, other forms of victimization, immigration, physical or mental disabilities, delinquency, gang involvement, teen parent, emotional disorders, chronic physical health challenges, natural disasters, etc.? We are interested in hearing your real-life success story.  Email us if you are willing to share your story so that can use your life lessons to inspire others.  Each story will be reviewed and might be chosen to be published as part of an innovative mentoring program.
