Nicole is truly exceptional. She recently ended her support with the Division of Child Protection and Permanency after a lengthy history of out-of-home placements with limited support. Nicole is hardworking and dedicated, as shown by her ability to juggle both work and college. She attends classes while also working at her local grocery store. Additionally, Nicole is independent and resourceful, demonstrating her capability to handle challenges and solve problems. Her love for her sisters reflects her caring and nurturing nature, underscoring her strong family values and loyalty.

Nicole has recently aged out of the foster care system and is taking steps toward independence by securing employment. She is currently training and working overnight shifts. Navigating adulthood without family support, Nicole is determined to obtain her driver's license. However, she has never had the opportunity to learn how to drive and has never been behind the wheel of a car. To boost her confidence, improve her driving skills, and prepare for her driver's license test, Nicole is requesting assistance with obtaining six hours of driving instruction.
