Community Update

At New Horizon School, other students welcomed and invited her to join in. Slowly she learned that no one would bully her, because "that's just not the way we do things" (another student's words to her). I don't have to try to hurry out of the office, because everyone at the school knows exactly what our family is going through. "It's what we do here" - (Office staff member's words to me). Now I look forward to watching her gain autonomy, have the confidence to volunteer in the community, and see herself as someone who matters in the world.
