Adara is a quiet, resourceful young lady who is the third child of six. She has spent years looking up to her older siblings, who guided her through many adversities, including homelessness, parental neglect, and household domestic violence. She has lived in upwards of five states, never remaining in one school for longer than one year. For a few years, she lived with her two older siblings in an unrelated resource home, until she was moved to another unrelated resource home two hours away at the request of her resource mother. She was subsequently moved two more times to unrelated resource homes. She lives apart from all members of her family. Despite her educational setbacks related to housing instability, she has challenged herself and has developed a love for reading and school.
