★★★★★Raingirl KprWYN is an exceptional organization. The focus they have on the children is absolutely amazing. The mentoring program alone deserves 5 stars. They care about the needs of our children in today's society and the obstacles they will face in life. The mentors they carefully choose for each child are spot on . How do I know because my daughter started with Wyn in middle school and she's now about to graduate from ASU. WYN has a great deal to do with helping her prepare for high school and college.The mentors AND Staff are there for the duration of her many years of school. Like a sister, best friend, and they care deeply and help them in every way possible. The staff at WYN there's only one word to describe all of them " FAMILY". THEY are Family to us. I am a single Mom and I don't know where we would be without The support & Love from this amazing group of caring kind people. So with that being said We the " Ketchum's will always be grateful. Love, Paula & Alonha KETCHUM ♥

★★★★★A DThis is such a blessing for the youth in Watauga county. Caring, kind staff and the focus on the kids is amazing. In my opinion , one of best organizations there is in our county.
★Michael “Mike”After a while, everyone started bullying me here. After a few months of pleading the counselors to do something, I broke. I started having severe depression and having suicidal thoughts. This continued until one day I asked my mom to pick me up. Once she got here I cried out "I jus' wanna die!" I was immediately taken out of the WYN program and needed a lot of therapy and medication to bring down my depression levels. Thanks to WYN, I have depression scars on both of my knees, from scratching them with a carabiner. This is a review of a child in the WYN program
★★★★★Jocelyn KnudsenMy children have had the best experiences of their lives with these wonderful people! I cannot say enough great things about WYN. They're like family!
