Life lessons from a former Wayside Campus student
 | | Khadija |
Khadija, 15, was until recently a resident of The Wayside Campus. When she transitioned out of the program, she left a heartfelt letter to the girls at Edgell House:
"...Home is not just a place you live, home is where your heart is, where you belong. I'm going to miss y'all a lot - do good, be strong. Because you don't want to have to be in programs all your life, you got to enjoy life now, because life is too short."
