“Chioma, What a beautiful happening today. I witnessed and felt the lives of some way-ward children actually move forward in real time. Tonight finds me overwhelmed and deeply moved by this. These seemingly irretrievable teenagers, with dark and doubtful futures and even more dubious histories, were magically shown a path of possibility by a caring, loving,authentic and sincere woman, Chioma. In the emotional fog of this, I'm struck with personal embarrassment about how totally removed I've been from this lot. I shall never forget this day Chioma. Thank you for the wake up call and thank you for sharing so unselfishly. But most of all, thank you for the hope and connection you gave those children today. ”

“Chioma has the amazing gift of entertaining her audience while telling her dramatic, personal story. Students and teachers alike, sit riveted while she gets her message across. Proof of that is in the number of young people who come forward after her talk, to share their own painful experiences. Chioma further proves her dedication by remaining behind with students until they are able to voice their trauma. She empowers them, which helps begin the healing process.”

“I thought your presentation was inspiring. It also brought out my confidence, and figure of speech. It showed me how to improve on my studies and how to handle peer pressure. The story of your life made me realize that I have a really great life and that I should not take my life for granted.”

“I am one of the parents that came to Chioma's presentation. I find that it was really educational and I got a lot of information that I can share with my child. It is so surprising the things that kids sit down and share with Chioma. They open up a lot and let you know how they really feel.” Ashley Johnson, Parent “The 3R’ inspired our students to the 4th R - Reflection” Patsy Agard VP Oakwood Collegiate “It is one thing for teachers to constantly advise students to do this or to do that in order to achieve success. It is quite another for young people to see this success personified, as it is in Chioma.”
