I am a Berkeley High School graduate , Tosjzarre Forrest. I attended the Love Life Foundation program in the summer of my senior year. The program really helped me get a realistic idea of my next steps and college as a whole. The guest speakers were all very knowledgeable and made me realize the difference between the worlds of high school and college.
