Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Sophia is a determined young woman in foster care living with her two siblings. She’s committed to staying close to her family and has expressed that she does not want to move out, valuing the stability and support their home provides. She recently completed her GED, and in addition to her studies, Sophia is preparing to begin an internship in child development with her social worker, an opportunity that reflects her interest in helping others and potentially working with youth in the future. Sophia's journey highlights her strength, determination, and a strong sense of duty to herself, her siblings, and her future.

Sophia wants a crochet kit to provide a positive outlet. It would keep her engaged while helping her build patience, focus, and confidence as she learns. With each project, like a scarf or hat, she’d feel proud of creating something. It will also help reduce stress and become a rewarding habit. As she improves, she might even inspire her siblings to join in, making it a fun experience for everyone!
