Children, Youth and Families Department

Christy has been in foster care for several years and has experienced many traumas in her young life. She is a very energetic young lady who loves to play with dolls, create crafts, and build with Legos. Christy is very close to her sibling, who is a year younger than she is. In school, Christy struggles and has an education plan in place to help her get back on track. She enjoys making friends and being liked by others. Additionally, Christy has a fondness for animals and currently lives in a home with a small pug that she adores.

Christy has faced significant challenges while navigating life in foster care, particularly the emotional strain of being separated from her sibling. To help her cope and distract her mind, she needs an activity that not only keeps her occupied but also brings her some relaxation. One of the things Christy truly enjoys is coloring. It allows her to express herself and find a sense of peace amidst the chaos in her life.
