Hannah, 19 years old, DC
Hannah is a remarkable young person has endured more than most her age, entering foster care after her parents were unable to care for her in a safe and stable way. Her father tragically overdosed in front of her and was later incarcerated, while her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer — leaving her to navigate life largely on her own since the 7th grade in 2017. Despite these immense challenges, she has continued to push forward with strength and determination. She has remained focused on her goals, finding success and stability through her own resilience. What makes her truly special is her independence, her perseverance, and her ability to stay grounded while carrying so much.
