In 2006, Nicholas shared his story about the death of his father, and the courage it took to overcome this devastating loss. Nicholas writes:

“The curriculum was able to help me find the words to describe the loss of my father and turn something traumatic into something powerful. I went from feeling like a victim to feeling like a warrior who was fighting to make my family proud.”
