okay well i was introduced to ryse less than a year ago and they have already helped me with so much. my friend invited me to come one day, he gave me a tour and i became a member. at first i would just come and use the computers but after a few days i started taking advantage of all the resources they have at the center. my counselor sheerene has helped me a ton with all kinds of aspects in my life. cecilia helped me complete a wellness plan which really helped me set goals for the future and see what i can do now to make them happen. i went through alot with my family recently and i honestly dont know how i would have dealt with everything without help from the ryse center. they have also provided me with my very first job which i am extremely happy about. its so hard to find employment now especially at a young age with no experience. but ryse helped me once again and i am now working here at the center. i would like to thank everybody who has helped me at the center and i will continue to come here for a very very long time(:
