"I think that who I am as a person today would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of VOICE. Sometimes a little support goes a long way, especially if it helps someone realize their true capacity and potential. Certainly, my ability to be comfortable in mainstream society stems partly from the confidence I gained from knowing my potential. It's difficult for me to even fathom how different my life would have been, but I will always be truly grateful for the chances and opportunities that VOICE helped me gain". Nathan Owen-Going, PhD
