Naomi, 13 years old, TN

Naomi, along with her family, left home suddenly to escape domestic violence, leaving nearly all of their belongings behind. Through it all, she has been a steady presence for her family, always pitching in to help care for her younger siblings, and almost always with a smile on her face. After a period of uncertainty, the family has recently moved into safe housing, a real turning point. Naomi is now starting over and rebuilding a sense of normalcy and routine in her new space.
