Success Stories


Thank you from a parent - Gigi

~~I want to take this opportunity to thank you for everything that you have done for my daughter, Lilah.  The difference that you all have made in her life and her future is amazing.  When she arrived at your program, things weren’t looking so bright for her.  There are not a lot of alternatives in public schools for kids who are bright but for whatever reason, do not learn in the same way as other kids. 

I knew that statistically, for her future, she would need that diploma or GED, and to achieve that she would need to have a successful experience with school and learning… something that she had never had before.  After being wisely directed to your program by a counselor from Spokane Public Schools, both Lilah and I were seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.  Next Gen provided her everything she needed to be able to succeed, not just in getting her GED, but by placing her in valuable and difficult to get internship situations and assisting her with the steps to get federal financial aid & getting into college.  By focusing on her strengths, she was positively motivated and successful.  You all made her want to go to college! 

I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Next Generation Zone and the work that they do.  The results show in the huge amount of confidence, engagement, and inspiration that Lilah has gained since she began working with them.  And they will show as she takes these opportunities that she’s been given there and uses them as a springboard to help manifest her potential as she moves forward into her adult life.  I couldn’t have put things together better for her if I tried.  You all are miracle workers to me!
