Mitchell Reed - Florence School District 14-1/Mount Marty University

Conversation is a constant in our lives, but we often don't have enough meaningful conversations, even among the people with whom we interact every day. Listening leads to understanding. Understanding leads to the capability to support.

People, especially students, find themselves battling the odds day in and day out. Many are faced with mountains of adversity and left to fend for themselves. What these people are looking for is someone to have confidence in them. They are looking for support and someone who cares. People can have mass amounts of power with how supportive they are and how much they care.
