Stories from Pace Citrus

Jade's Story

My name is Jade and I’m 17. At Pace Citrus, I have found more than just support—I’ve gained an extended family. The staff are compassionate and non-judgmental and they celebrate me for who I am. Two years ago, I started experiencing panic attacks, often triggered by feeling overwhelmed at school. My ROTC First Sergeant suggested I check out Pace, believing I could benefit from their counseling while keeping up with my academics. Now, I plan to pursue a degree in Business after graduation. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities Pace has given me, and I’m already using what I’ve learned to build a brighter future for myself and those around me.
