Dennis, 17 years old, NE

Dennis is a young man actively engaged in various support programs, and his transformation over the past year has been remarkable. Initially facing significant challenges, including a past in foster care and living in an unstable environment, he found pivotal support. He has secured a job at Domino's Pizza, and through the Independent Living Program, Dennis has moved into his own apartment and is now a proud new father to a one-month-old baby girl. Dennis is no longer the struggling young man; he is now a motivated and goal-oriented individual, focused on building a better future for himself and his daughter. His journey highlights resilience, the impact of support programs, and the power of second chances.
