HOW WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE - QUOTES FROM OUR COMMUNITY
“I am so grateful to this program for getting me out of my apartment and more involved in my community”
-Environmental Promoter
"I love how art and collaborative projects have helped some of the kids open up. Over the last few months, more and more children are speaking and sharing ideas with me. They are also improving their receptive listening skills and following directions. They are always really eager to find out what we are doing/creating each class!”
-RIHO program coordinator
“I learned so much about recycling”
-Environmental Promoter
“Having a resource such as Ground Score has opened new doors in my life. Things are not as hopeless or destitute. I look forward to the blossoming relationship between myself and Ground Score as together we tear down the walls and barriers of 'stereotypical' homelessness”
-Ground Score Worker
