Florida Foster Care Review

Amariya is genuinely working hard to adapt to the changes in her environment, even as she faces challenges in her foster home. Although her older siblings have chosen different paths, she is committed to forging her own. She is focused on her goals, trying to catch up academically, and staying positively engaged through her participation in cheerleading. The instability of moving between foster homes and experiencing periods both in and out of care has caused her to fall behind in school, but she remains undeterred. Determined to break the cycle and create a brighter future for herself, she demonstrates remarkable strength, perseverance, and a clear sense of purpose.

Amariya doesn't ask for much. For her birthday this year, she wants a super realistic baby doll. She would eventually like to work as a nurse in the pediatric unit. She believes that having the doll will help her practice caring for babies and develop her nurturing skills. With her kind heart and determination, Amariya is already on her way to becoming the caring nurse she dreams of being.
