Layla, 15 years old, NY
Layla has been living in a foster home for the past several years with her foster mother and another foster youth. While her younger sibling recently reunified with their biological mother, Layla made the thoughtful decision to remain in her current placement until she feels ready for that transition. She has stayed connected with her mother through visits and time together during the holidays. Creative and driven, Layla dreams of becoming a fashion designer one day and enjoys expressing herself through style and design.
