“When I was at Bedford, especially in the college program, I learned about the importance of giving back. I had a lot of time inside to think about what I had done and the many people who paid a price for my behavior. I decided that I had to commit myself to helping others, my children and other people who are going through hard times. Working at Miracles Can Happen, going to school and hanging out with my kids — even fighting over homework — I know what I have to do. It isn’t always easy. You can’t just pop back into your life or your kids’ lives. You’ve changed and so have they. But having the chance to find our way has been — well, I have never done anything so rewarding.” Victoria
