COVID-19 Update

"Before Pace, I was never one to walk around with my head held high. I did not know my self-worth because I allowed others to define, so my definition of myself was slim and negative. Because of the kindness and motivation exhibited by ALL of the staff members, the definition of myself is a never-ending novel of beauty and positivity. I do not think I will ever be able to repay them enough. They have taught me lessons on life that I will never forget." - Miranda
