Athena, 12 years old, OR
Athena is a bright, fun, and extremely caring pre-teen girl who has been through a lot, especially recently. Due to violence and instability, she and her family have had to move multiple times during the past two years. She has taken on a lot of responsibility for herself, her mother, and her younger brother, and has shown remarkable loyalty, sacrifice, and compassion while doing so. She is now in temporary foster care, where she is getting caught up in school, making friends, and beginning to explore her own interests, outside of caring for her younger brother. One new interest that she has recently discovered is drawing!
