Natalie, 21 years old, CA

At the age of 12, Natalie entered foster care, and after aging out, she found her passion in art. Now a dedicated student majoring in art, she dreams of painting murals that will enrich her community. Balancing the responsibilities of being a single mother while attending community college has not been easy, but her determination has paid off—she has recently been accepted into a four-year university. Through it all, she has managed to navigate her challenges while parenting solo.
