“Prior to Coro’s WIL program I had goals, but wasn’t sure how to achieve them.  After completion of the program I had a clearer picture of how to get where I wanted to go.  The program truly challenged my thinking and empowered me to make a difference in the lives of others” 

~ Leslie Harris-Wasim, WIL X
