Our Philadelphia chapter recently collected some quotes from members for a document, so we thought we’d share some here:
“Back on my feet has helped me prepare for basic training. I feel stronger and ready for training now that I have participated with Back On My Feet. I am going to miss everyone so much when I leave at the end of June.”
- Jorell, Team OBP
“These people encourage you. They don’t view you differently because of your past,” “I look and I see unity of the group. I see friendship. These people are my friends.”
- Antonio, Team RWA told the Daily News
“Back On My Feet has taught me to maintain discipline and the motivation to get myself in shape again. It is going to take a while, but with Back On My Feet’s help I believe I can do it!”
- Rich A, Team St Johns
“I like to come out because I like to see everyone including myself getting in shape and circling up as a group. I like to see everyone out there doing something positive together rather than something negative. It makes my morning!”
- Shabazz, New Jerusalem
