Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Lavontay entered foster care at age 17 but is focused on building a better future for himself and his family. He became a father to a baby girl earlier this year and moved to be closer to her. He recently secured a job to provide for his daughter and is committed to being a loving, present father. Lavontay finds joy in arts and crafts, but the greatest happiness comes from hugging his daughter, which reminds him of his purpose.

Lavontay wants to buy a baby walker for his 4-month-old daughter to help her grow and develop safely. He believes a walker will help her build strength and coordination as she learns to walk while keeping her secure. Safety and development are very important to him, and he wants her to explore and move around safely. Instead of using screens or technology, he prefers engaging her with hands-on experiences. A baby walker would keep her active and happy, helping her learn new things. As a caring father, Lavontay is committed to giving his daughter everything she needs to grow up strong and confident.
