CEDARS Youth Services

Venus is a remarkable young lady who is capable of advocating for herself. She is confident and fun to be around. Her goal is to complete her education and pursue a career as a labor and delivery nurse. Since moving into her new foster home, Venus has been actively helping with chores and cooking. She is also eager to learn various independent living skills as she works towards achieving permanency. Recently, Venus was placed in the same foster home as two of her siblings and other youth, making it a lively household. She uses her bedroom as a personal retreat and enjoys personalizing the space.

Venus is seeking a soothing light display for her bedroom, a sanctuary where she can unwind and feel safe. After long days at school, she often finds herself feeling escalated and in need of a moment to calm down. To help with this, she envisions a light projector that casts beautiful stars and galaxies across her room. Given that her name evokes the imagery of the night sky, it's no surprise that Venus delights in gazing at celestial wonders. This calming light display will serve as a perfect remedy, allowing her to ground herself and find peace whenever she needs it.
