Participant Quote:

"Having gone through the
juvenile system, from
Morgan Alternative Center
to Youth Center, and
then the Boys Ranch, my
options were limited. I
didn’t know what I wanted
to do with my life and,
if I didn’t act soon, I
would have been back
on the streets—either dead
or in prison. Luckily, Linkage
to Education showed me the
way to college and was
there to give me valuable
guidance at the most crucial
point in my life. I was able
to stay focused with school
and eventually graduate
from college. Going to
college is not only a place
to learn but also an
experience of a life time.
I got a chance to meet with
all kinds of people from all
over the world. Linkage to
Education has helped me
open the door to a whole
new world - a new world of
college and a second chance
to redeem myself."
