Corpsmember Richard Suarez shares his story with CBS News! His powerful story shines a light on the challenges many young adults face in completing their education.



After joining the Corps, Richard found the support and motivation he needed to get his high school diploma. His story is one that will resonate with residents throughout our community, particularly young adults who may be experiencing similar situations.


"At first, it was a little hard coming back into it, after not being in school for so long. But they really helped me ease into it. The teachers were really great, and they really care about you. They care about your grades and you getting your education. That really helped me want to do better." Richard shares with a smile.
