STAGES Spotlight on Christina

I will be leaving STAGES in May 2006. I'm still going to keep them in my heart for a long time because STAGES taught me a lot of what I need to know about myself and most importantly, I learned to believe in myself.

My advice to the new students is don't be afraid to express yourself. Say whatever is on your mind because if you don't, then no one will understand you. STAGES is a really GREAT program. I had so much fun. For the new students that are attending, I know you will too.

STAGES holds a very special place in my heart. Just because I'm leaving STAGES doesn't mean I'm leaving USF because I will continue working at Argos. I feel very much at home here at USF.

STAGES is a really awsome experience.

From the parents: “I want to thank STAGES for helping Christina to be more independent and for helping her get the job at Argos.  Most of all, for Mark helping her to ride the Hartline bus.  I hope the new students get as much out of the program as my Christina has”.
