Driving lessons for Gabriel to get his motorcyle license

Posted Apr 23, 2025
Gabriel is a current foster youth who is working for a housing construction company. While in construction, he is pursuing welding training to achieve long-term financial stability. He needs assistance with the mandatory motorcycle training course required for individuals under 21 to obtain a license, as this would significantly increase his independence. Having reliable transportation would eliminate his dependence on others for getting to work sites and trade school, allowing him to manage his own schedule. Without consistent transportation, Gabriel faces barriers to employment and education that hinder his transition to self-sufficiency. A motorcycle offers an affordable transportation solution and serves as a crucial stepping stone toward complete independence as he ages out of the foster care system.

Gabriel is 19 years old and lives in CA

Gabriel is a determined young man in foster care who currently works in construction, with a particular interest in home building. His passion for the trades has motivated him to pursue additional training in welding at a trade school, where he aims to develop specialized skills to advance his career. When he’s not working, Gabriel stays active through regular workouts and enjoys playing soccer—activities that demonstrate his discipline and team spirit. Despite the challenges of navigating the foster care system, Gabriel's hands-on experience in construction, combined with his clear vision for professional growth, showcases his remarkable resilience and potential.
