I am very appreciative of the services REAP provides to families like myself who need a little help when they are in crisis and need a place to turn to as a safe haven.

Every class had different topic for discuss new activities and vocabulary. The interactive exercises and discussions helped me learn how to think in English, instead of simply translating from my native language.
