"I had to take a gap year because of covid. I had to miss my graduation and leave my friends. I had to immediately pack up all my stuff in a week and go back to China. I was so anxious during that week that I didn’t know what to do. I went to HEAL twice during that time. HEAL’s peer counselor encouraged me to spend my last week in the States with my friends in meaningful ways. Looking back, I can’t imagine how that week would have been for me without talking to someone from HEAL.
