"YouthPOWER has been a lot of things to me over the years but most of all they have been a safe place for me. A place I can go and talk to anyone about anything. I can talk about things like school or problems at home. YouthPOWER is my second family for a lot of reasons. I couldn’t ask for a better one. YouthPOWER is enough motivation for me and has been a good guide for life in school and what it would be like to be an adult. YouthPOWER is a great program where kids grow to trust in themselves. I have been there since 3rd grade and now I am in the 12th grade with so much ahead of me. YouthPOWER staff has been great role models and they are a place I can call home."
