WHAT PEOPLE ARE

SAYING ABOUT LIT

"LIT has helped me learn how to speak up and problem solve."

 

-Middle School Student

"Never give up and stay confident. I look forward to going to LIT. It is so fun." 

-Middle School Student

"One key takeaway I've learned would probably be to not do drugs. After doing the LIT program, it showed me past people who did drugs and where they are now. I don't want to be in that spot they are in, in the future."
