Brigette spent much of her childhood and teenage years in residential facilities. After aging out of foster care, she successfully transitioned to independent living. Brigette has worked very hard to take care of herself, and manage the stress and challenges of her early years. She has become a very capable and devoted mother of two, and dedicates so much to providing her young children with a safe and loving home, special events and enriching opportunities. In her free time, Brigette volunteers with local agencies to give back to others who are in need.
