Keeping Alumni Connected to Henry Street and Each Other

Student Spotlight: Meet Amanda Gonzalez, SUNY Buffalo State '17

"As a senior in the public communications major at SUNY Buffalo State, I am in awe as I watch days fly by and graduation approaches quickly. My greatest decisions have always been made on a whim; the best example of that would be choosing to going away to school. I was more than prepared for whatever decision I made because of my mentors at the Expanded Horizons program at Henry Street Settlement. The team there gave me the support, knowledge, and resources I needed in order to choose the most suitable college for me. Going away to college was never in my plan; however, Expanded Horizons offered college tours which allowed me to gain a better perspective of what college outside of the city would be like. They allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of what success is, and allowed me to understand that I could go anywhere and still have great accomplishments. For this reason, four years ago, I made the 300 mile trip from NYC to Buffalo and never looked back."
