Quote of the Week
| "My
mother was mentally ill, my father was absent, and the school was my
haven. I often wish I could tell some of
those adults who helped me along the way that I did make it and that I'm so
grateful for the little and big ways they intervened in my life. To
all who serve children: Please know that
even very small kindnesses give hope and strength to the child who doesn't
receive them elsewhere." -Turned Out OK
Thanks to You
