2025-2026 AmeriCorps member AnjaliWhat do students say?“I feel like I am able to grow as a person with their supports. I have gone from not being able to attend school due to anxiety to going everyday and enjoying it. I like having a safe space I am comfortable in and having someone who in always there to cheer me on and encourage me when I have hard days. I like that they are able to push me while also respecting my boundaries and all in all I enjoy everything about being supported by a Promise Fellow.”

What do students say?“They have been very understanding and helpful in situations I never thought I could get past but they really helped me realize that I can do those things even if it’s difficult. They also have a huge goal of making sure we all feel safe in the space which is something I really like and respect.”
