“Through the mentoring groups, we worked on setting goals—whether they be educational, career or personal—and held each other accountable for meeting them. We learned about ways to be successful in college, attended resume-writing workshops, and explored other resources available on campus. I would recommend the SOAR Mentoring Program to every student here at CT State Tunxis. No matter what your dreams are, the support and guidance you receive from this program can help you achieve them.”
-Terry Bukowski, SOAR Student
