Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Nadia entered the foster care system at a young age, navigating a childhood marked by constant change and uncertainty. Despite the challenges she faced growing up, she remained determined to build a better future for herself. Now, Nadia is pursuing a degree in liberal arts, drawn to subjects that explore human experience, culture, and expression. Her studies have become a source of empowerment and a step toward long-term stability. Supported by a few close friends and mentors, she’s focused on creating a life filled with opportunity for herself and her baby. Her story is one of strength, growth, and the unwavering belief that she can shape her own path forward.

Nadia is currently navigating both her academic journey and the anticipation of welcoming her first child, an exciting new chapter that comes with its share of responsibilities. Balancing the demands of pregnancy and education is no easy feat, but Nadia faces this challenge with resilience and hope. To help her manage the dual responsibilities of school and motherhood, she is seeking a Lulabelle Portable Infant Swing. This swing would create a safe, soothing space for her baby, allowing her to focus on her studies or attend online classes without worry. Its portability means that she can keep her baby close, whether at home or on the go. For Nadia, this small tool represents a significant way to help her thrive during this transformative time.
