“ I see a lot of programs and I must say that the CDF Freedom School is one of the best. The opportunity and exposure for these young people is paramount to their future success. As a parent I can truly say my little one enjoys everyday he’s there and doesn’t want to miss out on anything.” – Angela Craig, parent of level one scholar.

“I wanted to advise you of my appreciation for the Freedom School and how much I enjoyed the program. Myles has learned a lot and he really needed that push to help with all of the reading skills he has needed help on for the past few years. He also told me that he made a lot of new friends and enjoyed the Freedom School as well. Thank you all again for the wonderful opportunity for him to attend. “ – Felicia Hatten, parent of level two scholar

“My experience with the Freedom School Summer Camp goers was nothing short of amazing. The scholars were welcoming, attentive, very engaging, & so smart. Honestly, they were one of the best groups of kids I’ve worked with thus far. I would love to come back & work with the campers again.” –Tiara King, program manager at Girls Inc. of Central Alabama

“My experience as a read aloud guest was great! I was a bit nervous at first seeing the enthusiasm of the children. I was so relieve though that this program promoted engagement early on before a reader even started. They asked very good questions, were polite, and engaging throughout the reading process. I would definitely come back next year as a partner!” –Emuni Sanderson, UAB Program Director
