Q. I'm new here in the Day Arts Program. How do I feel more comfortable in my new environment?

A. Firstly, the best way to be more comfortable is to join in and participate as much as possible. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there and make new friends. Greet everyone with a smile and ask them about themselves. Maybe even give them a compliment. Above all, be kind. Avoid conflicts if you can and help your fellow students. If you follow this advice, you should have an easy transition to your new day program.
