New Narrative - Compass Rose Program

Manny has demonstrated remarkable strength during his time in foster care. After being in the care of the Department of Human Services (DHS) for over three years, he has encountered numerous challenges but has found stability with our agency, where he has been for over a year and now considers it his home. Manny is kind and has a great sense of humor. He enjoys playing video games, going to the gym, and listening to music. A big foodie, he loves trying new dishes and sharing meals. He also likes watching movies and exploring new hobbies. Manny is preparing for a job and working on skills to succeed in the workplace. He’s excited to begin his career and find rewarding work that allows him to grow.

Manny would be absolutely thrilled to receive a PS5 console. He is very excited about several new games coming out this year, but can only play them on a PlayStation gaming console. Over the past two years, he has faced many challenges, including instability in his placement, but he has continued to work on achieving his goals. Manny has shown great dedication in pursuing employment and improving his job readiness. Receiving a PS5 would provide him with an excellent outlet, as he is an avid video game fanatic, allowing him to unwind after long days.
