Hear about OnTrackNY from current participants & graduates

We asked a few OnTrackers to share about their experiences with OnTrackNY.

Group therapy helped a ton. It was the communication that I had with the other [participants] there…Slowly but surely, I started putting the pieces together, and the recovery began.

Being a part of the Youth & Young Adult Leadership Council and attending the monthly sessions made me feel better and reassured that I wasn't alone in my journey to recovery. It has been fulfilling to be a part of the Council and contribute my ideas to different projects and feel like I am giving back to this community.

- OnTrackNY graduate, OnTracker Leadership Council member

[OnTrackNY has been] able to keep changing what they're doing for me as my needs have changed, like help with college applications and tips for studying.

- Jacquelyn (portrayed by an actor) OnTrackNY graduate
