My favorite part about WIT is how WIT expects teens to be independent. Miss Hernholm and the WIT facilitators are there to help, but not there to do it for you. Your success in WIT is entirely contingent upon how much work you put into it, which can make it more challenging, but, in the end, all that much more rewarding.

Favorite WIT Tip - "10-10-10" because it really changes how I make decisions. Thinking about the result of what could happen 10 hours from now, 10 months from now, and 10 years from now really helps me make the right decision that will benefit my future.

My favorite part of WIT is the sense of empowerment I feel during and at the end of all our WIT meetings. Not only does each meeting empower me, but the environment itself is so warm and welcoming. They accept and welcome all who enter with open arms. WIT embraces all of our faults and mistakes, helping us work to improve them and reach excellence. I LOVE EVERYTHING about WIT.
