What Our Scholars Say
Adriana - Apprentice Piercer
2024 Alumni
Monterrey, CA, USA
"This was an incredible experience where I felt valued, respected, and included by my peers. In the first year of my attendance I felt like I stood out and didn't belong because I didn't see others that looked like me, being part of a diverse group of friendly individuals made all the difference. We are all different but our stories brought us together. The POC fosters a sense of belonging, friendship and pride in standing out. Thank you, POC!"
