On May 22, we had the tremendous privilege of celebrating the 5280 Class of 2026 at graduation. To say we are proud of these 27 students (our largest class to date!) would be an understatement.

All three of our student speakers shared powerful words of wisdom with their classmates. We'd like to share just a snippet of one of those speeches with you, from Ransom, one of our recovery student speakers.

"As we move forward into the next chapter of our lives, I hope we remember that growth doesn't happen all at once. Recovery doesn't have to be perfect and your past does not decide your future. Keep believing that you deserve better for yourself. Keep choosing growth even when it’s uncomfortable. And most importantly, don't let temporary struggles convince you that your story is over when it really is just the beginning."

Just the beginning, indeed. Congratulations, Class of 2026! We can't wait to see where life takes you next.
