I used to think my future was hanging by a thread since I graduated high school. I never knew where I was going to take my next steps in life but I always knew where I wanted to go and accomplish. My steps where I walked were never set in stone, and I always wondered why I’m not reaching my goals fast enough. Was I putting in the effort so I can see a change, or be a change I wanted to see? I lived in NYCHA all my life and my plan was to get out by any means but after GCF I reformed my ideals. They shaped my concept of getting out to become something greater than I have ever been or wanted to achieve. With their guidance I learned to incorporate my knowledge into action.
