“What I learned from the program is that you have to be healthy, not just physically but mentally as well. You have to take care of yourself and to make sure that you are mentally happy. What was meaningful to me was that we were able to open up and express ourselves to people that we don’t know, but also feel safe and know that they are here to help us.”
