CLIENTS TESTIMONIALS:"The program has benefited my family a lot. I have learned about domestic violence, nutrition, and drugs. My son gets help with his homework, and not only that -- the Escuelita program offers learning activities that they don't even have for him at school -- for example, science projects, social studies, and geography."
Silvia M. "My daughter has been attending the program since she was 5 years old. Through this time, she has received homework assistance, and access to computers. The program has helped my family in different ways, such as to get referrals to community agencies. We received skills to educate our children in a different way -- the parenting classes was one of our favorite classes."
Monica F. "My name is Edna. I am in the 6th grade and regularly attend Character Counts at the Resource Center after school. In character counts we learn about the six pillars and how to be a better person. I have learned a lot."
Edna "I used to be a fire fighter for this community and Park Vista used to be the worst place to live in Anaheim. There were days that our team had to come to this Apartment complex three times a day to assist. Project Access has done a great job improving the community".
Richard Chavez Quotes from Kids Residing at North Hills Apartments in Fullerton who Received Books of their own from the Project Access relationship with First Book: Jose Duarte – "Getting a book from First Book made me really happy because the book was funny. I will probably read the book again instead of watching TV." Edna Flores - "I feel thankful for having this opportunity to have a book of my own, I don't really have any, and for being able to learn more through books." Omar Cea - "It feels pretty good to get this book because I can read more and I love reading." "I have always struggled helping my children on their homework, mainly because of my limited English skills and because the mathematics in this country is very different to the way I learned them in my own country of Mexico. I was looking for academic help for my children when someone mentioned the Project Access Learning Center at Warwick. Since coming to the center, my children do their homework and I have no problems getting them to do their homework on time. We are very happy with the help they receive. I hope that we will always have the services offered by the Learning Center."
Socorro M. "I am very pleased with the Homework Club at the Learning Center. I know it has helped my daughter's growth and development as a person, she is better able to interact with other children"
Gloria Estrada, resident and parent "My son was starting to hang around with the wrong crowd and I would keep him inside the house, I realized that once my son started going there to the Friday program at Project Access, that he begun to change for the better"
Shelly, resident and parent "The parenting classes have helped me to find a better way discipline and communicate with my children. When my son Jaime started kinder, his teacher noticed that he was ahead of the other kids. He knew how to color, cut, count, and write his name. I told her that he had acquire those skills in the after school program. My children have good grades in school because they do their homework at the homework club. They also develop good reading habits in their reading, all thanks to the program."
