“Polaris, the North Star is uniquely important. Fixed in place, an anchor. No matter where you are in the northern hemisphere, if you face Polaris, you face North. You know where you are.  But, there are other ways to get lost. In the choices we make, in events that overwhelm us, even within our own minds. What can be an anchor then?  What beacon can we turn to, to guide us from darkness to light?  What if it’s other people? The lives that touch our own, in ways big and small? Because unlike Polaris, the light that they bring will never fade,”  Cassie Brown.

Testimonials

It is awesome here at the FDLTCC Education Program because it is like a family here, if you need help or are struggling with anything, you have quite a few people who will help you out.

My favorite thing about FDLTCC is the people. I’ve met fantastic students, faculty and staff who go above and beyond what I expected.

I chose FDLTCC because of its size and the curriculum. When I first came here in 2019, I was just looking for what I needed to volunteer, perhaps in a crisis shelter. I met with Don Jarvinen, and the rest is history.
