This instructor was not only knowledgeable, but passionate about the material. As a therapist who has taken Article 9 multiple times in the past, I am thrilled to see a knowledgeable and empathetic person appeal to the moral character of those who have direct contact and the most profound effect on peoples lives. I will tell everyone I know about what a positive experience this was and urge the to take this class from Chris not just because it is required, but because everyone should see this material through his eyes and apply his passion and conviction within their own working experiences. Chris Garcia is a true asset to your company and to all of us who had the privilege of learning from him. Sincerely, Elda Leonetti, MEd, MS, MA
