The FORTE House family is grateful every day--not just this month--for the constant support we receive from so many people and organizations. You have given us time, money, furniture, technology, tutoring, grant-writing support, opportunities to give back, and most of all, hope. Without you, FORTE House could not exist. Because of you, our students are doing well, our organization is healthy, and we are looking eagerly to the future. You have our deepest, fullest, and most loving gratitude! 

Dominique Graham works with formerly incarcerated Rutgers-Newark students in navigating course work, campus life and some of the challenges of the re-entry process. During the pandemic, she also had to help students through new technology challenges, as well as isolation and anxiety. "My style is nurturer," she explains. So she also asks, "Are you eating? When did you last sleep?"  Read how Dominique's role as a Mountainview Community Counselor and Senior Program Director changed during the pandemic -- and the enduring challenges she helps her students face every day -- on our blog.
