Video Testimonial from Corey Copeland, Student Success Teacher,
Kirkland Lake High School, Kirkland Lake, Ontario

"We owe you big! Your program changes lives. It was an honor to be a part of it. We've had a number of kids who either quit smoking or drastically reduced. And one boy gave up weed altogether - and now that the 4 weeks is up, he is now applying your program to cigarettes. ... A lot of the kids actually surprised me with the exercise component of your program. Many of them started to see the benefits of exercising and actually ended up increasing and doing more with exercise then they had originally promised.

...being able to attract only those kids that were really committed - and cause those that really weren't there for the right reasons to make the right choice and not stay with us for the day (if they were not going to follow through on the full 4 week program) - was incredible. And all those that stayed for the full 3.5 hour seminar/workshop, stuck with the whole 4 week program. If I had to weed them out myself, I would have probably encouraged some of the wrong kids to stay and be in the group.

Your program is a process and a journey. It's not like everyone has all their problems solved, but all the kids that participated are better off than they were before you came."
