Dear Jack, I think you are of the coolest older person I’ve met. I admire the way you were able to lead a bunch (of) teenagers to do something meaningful with their time. I don’t think I have anything I would want you to change about how you handled the workshops because you ...

This was a very powerful experience. I found that the activities encouraged people to truly look within themselves – explore their feelings – explore the reasons for the way they present themselves to others and to consider ways in which they can change themselves. I think that participants have developed more tolerance for ...

Leader’s Quest Program

Even with all this emotion in this room, it seems hard to be able to express these emotions or cry. But, with this presentation, it’s helped me open up a lot more with my friends, or even people I don’t know. This day has changed my life in every aspect by the way ...

Dear Jack, When I first walked in, I thought we all are just going to play around, meet new people and watch a movie. But well I was so wrong. I had the best time here, met all new people, you made me feel special, safe and welcome. The most emotional part is ...

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 ...

This day was a very event filled day that shown me a lot about others when I believed it couldn’t happen to them because I see them in school and they’re basically happy but I know it’s a mask waiting to be town down, just like I wear every day of my life. ...

Smile when the good times come, and cry to express your emotion. Do not be afraid to cry. Great time, loved meeting new people and opening up. Thanks so much for helping me open up easier and for helping me find my true self!

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 ...
