Arcadia University- H.O.M.E. Program

Denis is a creative young man with a passion for writing. He enjoys composing poetry and short stories and aspires to become an author in the future. He loves reading and has created a mini library at home. When he was thirteen, his mother tragically committed suicide, and his father essentially abandoned the family, leading to Denis entering foster care. He has found significant healing through journaling and scrapbooking. Currently, he lives with his maternal uncle and aunt, along with his two younger brothers.

Denis is hoping to get a pair of roller skates, as he’s eager to reconnect with a hobby he once loved but had to set aside during his time in foster care. Roller skating not only offers him a way to become more active, but it also provides a vital outlet for managing his anxiety and finding a sense of peace.
