"Denise Pollard does excellent work. She can enter into rapport with 'unruly' student clients quickly and is able to maintain sanity and professionalism, even if everyone else involved is tense. She is also able to interact with all participants in a positive manner and establish a progressive process for the 'team' to commence."

-Sue Digre, Director of Family Services for PARCA
