Dear Jack, Thank you for today. It was inspirational and fun filled with activities, and communication! You’ve opened my mind to other perspectives and had my mind for sometime. Our activities from the marshmallow castle to the over the line activity, it was entertaining. I thank you for a great day and you ...

Today helped me realize that I’m not the only one struggling with situations. Now I have some people I might go to for help that I wouldn’t have before. It helped me also realize people are being judged for more than race or gender. My friends helped me do this allowing me to ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for today. Today you helped me very much. You helped me to let out my bottled up feelings. You made it a fun experience, while we were learning to trust complete strangers. Today you showed me that I’m not alone and that I have an amazing support system, that ...

Dear Jack, Your workshop was a very good experience for me and I think all of the other girls as well. All of the activities seemed to work well with everyone and I think we all learned something today. The booklet also gave us a chance to express ourselves and learn more. The ...

I was grateful that you came here to do this. If you didn’t a lot of people would still feel left out and like no one cares. You helped everyone up. I had never told anyone that I cry myself to sleep just about every night. I also never told anyone that I ...

I wanted to let you know how powerful an experience the “Quest I’m On” day was for the students of Roberts and for me personally. I was impressed with how well the day was structured and how each activity progressed developing a “sense to safety and sensitivity” within the participants. It was hard ...

I find this workshop safe because you can talk to people that is going through the same things. I enjoy myself. I have met new people and talk. Thanks for this wonderful workshop. It was fun and sad at the same time.

Jack Langedijk and his brother did a presentation to staff at VP Middle School on the afternoon of our P.A. Day.

It’s hard for me to cry in front of people. I feel uncomfortable and when I’m with people tears won’t come. Today I saw other people are like that too. This is a great program. You guys are really sweet. Thanks for coming. Sincerely. (original message)

This was a very interesting and nothing like I expected. It really helped us bond and I feel closer to everyone now. Walk the line was very touching and it showed how people really felt. People who were shut tight opened up and showed their emotions. I’m glad to have had the chance ...

You guys are two of the most amazing people I have ever had the honour of meeting. You taught me to be myself no matter what everyone says and not to care what people said when I try to stand up for others. And when someone needs to talk I make time, and ...

Dear Jack, Today was great. Really. You encouraged us to dig deep and open up. Also you made us feel that crying was a natural and good thing. Thank you so much. You also touched topics that a lot of us are afraid to talk about like being violated and thinking about suicide. ...

I would really like to thank the two of you for helping a lot of us today get our feelings out and just to be totally honest. I’m very thankful I was invited today because I’ve had some feelings bottled up that just had to be let out. This whole program today really ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for this experience, it really opened my eyes to so many things I experienced and learned today. You showed us how to work together and put us in groups so we can co-operate with each other, for us to be a leader, to be respectful and get to know ...

Dear Jack, Thank you so much for coming to Madonna! I think all of us here will take lessons back and put them in effect in our lives. I really liked how you emphasized listening and its importance. In this fast-paced world we now live in, we all don’t listen to each other ...
