Jariah, 15 years old, OH
Jariah has faced significant trauma throughout her life, making it challenging for her to build relationships and develop positive coping skills. The circumstances she has encountered are undeniably unfair; however, since entering foster care, she has demonstrated meaningful growth and a newfound openness to support. She has started engaging with a new therapist and is preparing to work with a mentor—both of which are important steps she is now willing to take to create a healthier future. She has formed a strong, trusting relationship with her foster mom, whom she deeply admires and who has become a steady source of encouragement. Jariah is making truly incredible strides.
