  This poem was written by a Counseling Department client.

  "In this tranquil place where I come, I can be me. You won't have it any other way. Surprising, since out there being me is not very popular. Here I can put my feelings into words and no one will throw them back in my face. Out there what I say usually gets twisted, deformed and hard; to be used as a weapon against me. Here, I find freedom and strength and I take it out there to be used for me and no one can steal it away because you told me and I believe you, and it is so. Little by little I gain strength, freedom and sweet peace; the very elements I need to be me again, out there." - ECM

  "Parents as Teachers has been a great program for my child and me. Within the last year, I have been able to introduce new ideas to help my child grow emotionally and physically. With the help of Isabel, our parent educator, we have been able to find new ways to target my child's milestones. The top three things we enjoy about the program are 1. The activities: Before the COVID 19 pandemic, we enjoyed having a new activity to work because it allowed me as a parent to see how my child would use her cognitive, motor, and communication skills to partake in the activity. Now we still get to partake in our meetings thru internet communication. 2. Bonding: I enjoy having something different to do with my child. It is amazing what a book and/or a hands-on activity can do. 3. Engaging: As a parent we are always looking for resources, ideas, and opinions on how to achieve our child's milestones in preparation for school. We truly enjoy participating in the program and are thankful for the opportunity." - J. Cantu
