There is no question that LEI has made an important contribution to the youth that have been fortunate enough to participate in the program. Furthermore, through their work with youth and families, LEI has been able to extend their reach to entire families. From the philosophy behind the program to the implementation of it, LEI staff has created a high quality, well run program that I am grateful to have at Duggan, Kennedy and The Academy at Kiley. It is our hope that LEI will continue to be a positive force in our schools for many years to come.”
