"The ISS afterschool program has helped my daughter grow in the years that she has been attending. It has helped her with being more social and trying new things, as well as help with homework. The staff have helped her grow, by communicating with her in a way that lets her see where maybe she could've done things differently so that moving forward, she can make better choices. They make sure we know that if there is anything we need we can reach out and they will do their best, and if they can't help they will guide us to where we might be able to get the help needed".
