Student quote: Open Circle was one of the healthiest choices I made

During these challenging times, Student Open Circles is supporting resilience in students and in the Hamilton community, continually adapting to changing needs with new programs starting up this spring. Resilience takes many forms. Paul and Matthew find motivation in relating with youth and seniors who struggle with the ongoing impacts of the pandemic. Yashasvi supports her community service by grounding herself in Open Circle reflection circles. Personally, we are strengthened for this work through our spiritual practices as we address evolving needs among students and the community. As we support growth, resilience, and service in students during challenging times, we’re so grateful for your encouragement and support.
