“I want to express my gratitude for the Sonrise Project. The Sonrise Project is a large part of why I'm able to make it through each week. If I feel down, I listen to replays of the sessions. It makes a difference to know I'm not alone and to know that if I'm really struggling with something, I just have to wait until Sunday morning to speak up and ask my question...with no judgment. “
“I am relatively new to the call and love the sessions. I appreciate all that you do to bring information and resources to this group and to build and foster a sense of community. Thank you!”
“It is a really great space for learning and sharing. We have discovered this at a critical time in our son's life and believe it can help us better support what he needs.”

“Having these family issues is hard, and I’ve felt judged by everyone - until SonRise. Thank you!
“Thank you again for the SonRise Project. I appreciate the safe space provided and all those who have had the courage to share their stories, concerns, and resources.”
“Before I began participating in Sonrise, I felt completely hopeless and helpless. That is not a safe place to be. I no longer feel hopeless and I'm slowly moving beyond helpless. We still have a long way to go, but at least I'm not giving up.”
