"This book (Street Outreach: Love, Service & Leadership) outlines the author's experience in the success of dealing with many youths who undergo traumatic experiences in life.

"Thankfully, there are people like Anthony Goulet in this world and his fellow street outreach workers. They fight this battle to remedy the wrongs that our society is too busy or ignorant to address. They don’t look away, they engage. They’re armed with loving kindness and resources that range from guidance to a drug rehab facility to a stuffed animal and a hug, and risk life and limb to serve a kid in desperate need. In our Native cultures, our warriors were those willing to develop their skills over a lifetime to serve their tribe. It was not a role of glory, but of sacrifice and was rooted in service. Anthony and his kind are fulfilling the traditional definition of a warrior in the thankless, dangerous work they do every day. "

"I have never seen the kids react so strongly to anyone before! You are a magnet of hope for those you come in contact with. I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude ..."

"After 20 years of counseling at-risk youth, I was tired and felt like I wanted to quit. After hearing Anthony's presentation, not only do I no longer feel like quitting, I feel reinvigorated. I am inspired once more, plus I walked away from his presentation with a few new tools."

“It was a good session that opened my eyes to stuff about myself. We always think that ‘it’s only me.’ I don’t feel so alone about that stuff that happened to me. Thank you for opening my eyes and heart.”

"The depth of Anthony's celestial tool box was far more expansive and inclusive than any training I have ever had. I enjoyed being escorted on the longest walk back to my heart, and to think how long it takes to get back to the heart is only 17 inches."
- Alejandro P, Educator and Poet, Dallas, Texas
“Anthony shared many great suggestions and strategies to overcome obstacles in life. The emotion and passion he has for what he does is evident and is heartfelt. Thank you, Anthony, for sharing your truth.”

"Anthony Goulet provides an effective unique approach to working with gang involved youth. Throughout my many years of experience of working with youth and families I have attended many 'gang awareness/prevention/intervention' type trainings. The majority of the trainings consist of informative factors such as gang history and identifiers. Anthony's training was the first to not emphasize this information but to focus more on the individual as a human being, which ultimately is most important regardless of the population you are serving. His approach honors the individual's history and future without demeaning anyone for less than positive life choices. Anthony is able to provide education on the topic with passion, commitment and experience. I recommend his training for anyone who is committed to helping gang involved youth."

"Excellent! A lecture you must attend if you are looking to know yourself."
- Jaime Nieto Jimenez, Indianapolis University of Purdue
"Street Outreach: Love, Service & Leadership is a riveting account of the reality of human trafficking, homelessness, hunger, domestic violence and other forms of neglect that push youth out of mainstream society and into the margins of despair and cold survival. One cannot read and learn about why this happens, why it continues, and how it is perpetuated by society and not feel the need to join and/or contribute to the solutions offered by Anthony Goulet."
- Richard R. Ramos Founder, Author, of Parents on a Mission President—CEO, The Latino Coalition for Community Leadership
"There are not many trainings where you leave with something to carry on not only in your work, but in yourself. Anthony's training has helped me become a better person first, and a better educator second. It has also helped me know that if I never give up I can reach the youth. I appreciate his approach and his passion."
