Leslie, 18 years old, TX

Leslie entered the foster care system in 2014 at just six years old, and after years of navigating various placements, she has now aged out of the system at eighteen. With her next adventure on the horizon as a college freshman, Leslie is filled with excitement about what lies ahead. She has a passion for beauty, is an avid Spider-Man fan, and possesses a smile that lights up any room. Over the past couple of years, she has softened her hardened exterior, and now she is eager to embrace her newfound independence. Leslie looks forward to making her own decisions, forging new friendships, and pursuing her degree in criminal justice, with a particular interest in forensics.
