Rina, 17 years old, NM

Rina recently entered foster care after experiencing a highly isolated upbringing. Throughout her childhood, her family frequently moved from state to state, often relocating when child protective services became involved. As a result, she did not attend school or receive routine medical care. She is enrolled in school and is beginning to experience many developmental milestones. Having grown up with limited social interaction and spending most of her time watching Netflix and TikTok, she is now eager to gain life skills, gain independence, and build a stable future as she approaches adulthood.
