Preston S. Brown: Trust Yourself, Never Give In

http://www.usent.org/ This video is 15 minutes of an amazing journey in a young man's quest for greatness by never giving in to poverty, juvenile justice, drugs, homelessness, and many family struggles.

Preston S. Brown, Program Director of NJMED, talks to student-athletes at his Alma Mater Tulane University about his struggles growing up in Camden, NJ and how storms always seemed to follow him even in his days as a student-athlete during hurricane Katrina where he served as a personal mentor and captain of the Tulane Football team.
Browns faith, hardwork and loyalty for success allows him the privilege to change lives daily and commit to the 100 percent graduation rate movement.
