Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Catrina aged out of the foster care system and is focused on building a stable and fulfilling future for herself. She has a strong interest in hair and makeup and dreams of turning that passion into a career. Catrina enjoys expressing creativity through beauty and sees it as a way to uplift others and boost confidence. Despite the challenges she’s faced, she remains motivated and determined to succeed.

Catrina will benefit from receiving a hair weave because it will allow her to actively practice and develop her hairstyling skills. With a strong interest in hairstyling, having a weave gives her the opportunity to experiment with techniques such as braiding, sewing, and styling in a hands-on manner. This experience will help her build confidence as she explores a future in the beauty industry. Practicing with real materials will not only enhance her talent but also motivate her to pursue formal training or work in a salon, potentially turning her passion into a career path.
