Sandra Garrett, Ridgefield — Sandra Garrett turned a tragedy into triumph when she created Lean On Me, a bereavement group for teens ages 13-18 years old.  Sandra recruited therapist Adrienne Slater to help lead the group, researched the stages of grief, created a brochure, and then implemented the group at a local church.  Unique in the fact that it was created by a teen, the program offered eight weeks of meeting sessions.  Sandra currently attends Ridgefield High School and would like to pursue a career in the medical field.
