‘DCC was one of the greatest choices I have made in my life…’

When I think back to my last years of high school, it was very carefree. I needed someone to say to me, “Hey! You have to think about your future! What are you going to do for the rest of your life?” I was lost in a party world, but going back to college helped me to grow as a person, helped me set boundaries and know where I wanted to go.

I signed up for the Community Support Worker Program and started the course not knowing what to do or expect. I have to admit it was intimidating coming back to school at this point in my life.  I have a partner and I have kids and bills! But there comes a time when you have to put yourself and your  happiness first. I wanted a career so I could give my daughter a better life. At first, it was hard to accommodate day care and school, but they made it possible for me to succeed.

At Discovery I grew not only personally, but spiritually. The teachers I had were wonderful. The small class certainly helps a lot   because it made it possible for me to have a close connection to the teachers and staff. I can proudly say that going to Discovery was one of the greatest choices I have made in my life. Now I not only have a job, but a career which I am proud of. I get to help people, to empower them to participate and engage in the community. Thank you Discovery College team!
