Jazmina, 15 years old, CA

Jazmina recently entered foster care after her guardian passed away, leaving her with her estranged husband. Luckily, Jazmina was soon placed with a caring foster mother who is helping her regain her sense of safety and self. She is now attending public school for the first time in six years after being homeschooled. Jazmina is doing well academically and is seen as respectful and engaged by her teachers. However, she struggles with socializing and feels embarrassed about her background. Jazmina enjoys making gifts and is interested in taking a dance class.
