Our Newest Lifecasters: The Camphor Family

"I've taken it as a challenge not to be that man that steps away from my family, not to be that man that says 'okay it's too overwhelming, it's too much...' You can’t seek (change) outside the community – we have to seek it inside the community, and the basic structure of that community is the family. If we can focus on the family, put that structure back together, then we can see a better future." -- Corey Camphor
