"I think the biggest impact has been on how I see myself. I feel more confident in my ability to be an Occupational Therapist but also to exist as myself.

​I feel stronger and more able to deal with challenges on my own."

"GOT Ministries played a huge role in helping me understand the benefits of OT services for at-risk youth.

​I thank God everyday that I had the opportunity to work with you and the kiddos at New Life, because I learned so much that I hope to implement into the services I provide in the future! Keep up the great work, God is moving through your organization!"
