De'Johnnae, 26 years old, CA

De'Johnnae has had a very rough journey. De'Johnnae was in care throughout her childhood. And recently, she and her younger brother (who she cares for) experienced homelessness. They would alternate between couch surfing, sleeping in a park, and living in De'Johnnae's car. But thankfully, they've overcome this hardship and finally have a stable place to call home again. De'Johnnae has also just gained a temporary job as a nighttime caregiver before she starts nursing classes later this summer. One thing is for certain - De'Johnnae wants to turn things around so she can prepare herself for success and learn how she can help people in need.
