From Anthony White, Campus Manager, Hampton Prep Academy.
This was an incredibly inspiring event. A few of the graduates prepared speeches about how the SRT program changed thier lives. I was almost in tears as they talked about where they started from and with the SRT program, where they ended up. Services of Hope, this is one of your greatest success stories!
