"I truly believe that the (Survive the Summer) information given is excellent! I didn't go to any workshop that didn't meet my expectations. I have been to all of The Children's Trust trainings done by the Children's Forum and have always been impressed. It has been truly enlightening."
-- Susy Montalvo, Program Director, Hands in Action

"This seminar (Florida Standards for Quality Afterschool Programs) should be a mandated one for all who work in afterschool settings. I have a doctoral degree and have conducted many workshops for public school teachers and taught early childhood. However, I am thoroughly enjoying this seminar and I'm learning a lot of new activities. The instructor is phenomenal! I highly recommend the seminar to program administrators and staff workers."
