Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Alexander entered the foster care system at the age of 13, a time when most kids are just beginning to figure out who they are. Growing up without consistent support made it hard for him to feel grounded, and he's still on a journey to find his place in the world. Despite the challenges, Alexander has shown resilience and determination. He currently works at Ulta, where he’s learning valuable skills in customer service, teamwork, and professionalism. The job gives him a sense of structure and independence as he works to build a more stable future. Though he's still figuring things out, Alexander is focused on personal growth and staying open to new opportunities. He’s learning what it means to support himself and set goals, even if the path isn’t always clear. With the right resources and encouragement, he’s ready to keep moving forward and discover the life he wants to lead.

An Xbox could be a great way for Alexander to relax and take his mind off work. It can help him manage stress, connect with friends, and boost his confidence through teamwork and achievements. For someone still figuring things out, having an Xbox can bring fun, a sense of belonging, and a bit of normalcy that every young adult should have.
