My Story…
2020 was tough on all of us in many different ways. But imagine trying to maneuver the cautions and restrictions of the past year while managing a life-threatening illness as a young adult. The perseverance and hope of these young people, as well as the Next Step organization, has been astounding. Every year, but especially this year, I am honored to support such an awesome group by running (ok, walking) a few miles. Thank you for helping me reach the finish line!
Description
Next Step empowers teens and young adults living with with life-threatening diseases to successfully transition from childhood to adulthood and into an adult healthcare system, creating their brightest future. This is done by providing extensive support and teaching essential life skills to help our participants to effectively manage their illness, maintain optimum emotional health, and succeed in their professional career. To accomplish these goals, the Next Step programs address the physical, emotional and developmental issues unique to these young adults through our community, music, and mentorship program and moving our young people closer to, "I believe in me."
