I feel a lot more confident about my
transition to college. This course gave
me a tool kit to approach various
problems that could be magnified in
college. Every college student should
have access to this valuable resource.”

First-Year Thrive Program Participant
“I enjoyed how the whole program has a deeper intention and dove into topics that not a lot of people have been exposed to. Everything we learned from the program is typically not taught in school or by parents and it was very enlightening to see such issues addressed and expressed in a loving and compassionate way.”
First-Year Thrive Program Participant
"So many [students] said that they thought this course would be 'lame' at first, but quickly realized how the information given really changed the way they feel about life in general. The assessments on our end were fantastic. I will be incorporating more of the lessons in the fall..."
