Angela, 39 years old, CA

Angela is a strong and resilient young woman. As a former foster youth and a single mother, she has faced more than her fair share of challenges. Growing up in foster care made it difficult for her to find stability and establish a strong foundation for adulthood, but she has never let that stop her. With a bold, independent spirit and unwavering dedication to her son, who is on the autism spectrum, Angela has pushed through every obstacle to reach her current position. Although her education has taken longer due to life circumstances, she is now just one semester away from transferring to university. Angela has built a career in case management and hopes to return to this field once her son begins preschool. Creative, intelligent, and resourceful, she enjoys shopping, sharing her story, and doing whatever it takes to support her family and achieve her dreams.
