City Living NY

Haley is a bright and resilient young woman who aged out of foster care after spending more than 15 years in the system. She is incredibly self-aware and highly motivated, choosing to move into supportive housing to continue receiving assistance while transitioning to independent living. Currently, Haley is studying for her GED and works as a security guard. She has an infectious spirit and deeply cares about others. With the right support, Haley will continue to thrive and achieve her goals.

Haley has put in so much effort to find her footing after spending years in the foster care system. Now that she’s living independently in her very first apartment, she’s thrilled to create a space that feels both safe and true to her personality. Her apartment has become her little retreat! While she’s busy with work and studying for her High School Equivalency, Haley also loves to unwind by playing video games. It’s a fantastic way for her to relax and keep in touch with her friends. But she’s been dreaming of a comfy game chair—just the thing to make her downtime even more enjoyable! Haley is such a bright and determined young woman, and giving her this small comfort would really lift her spirits as she continues to build a stable and fulfilling life.
