Firefly Supported Living and Employment Services

Caiden is a lively and humorous young person who always strives to support the underdog and enjoys helping others. She is extremely brave and embraces new challenges. Last winter, she earned a varsity letter in wrestling, and this fall, she is participating in choir as well as joining the Drama Club and Art Club. Her resilience and determination enable her to overcome many obstacles that life presents. Caiden is full of life, love, strength, and music.

Caiden is deeply passionate about choir, embracing music education as a means to foster her socio-emotional and creative growth. Throughout her life, she has relied on music not only as an expressive outlet but also as a way to forge connections with others. One of her greatest dreams is to see the musical "Hamilton" live. This particular performance holds a special significance for her, as it has created a unique bond with her history teacher, who is now her foster parent. Experiencing this show in person would be not just magical, but also a profoundly educational opportunity for Caiden, enriching her life in ways that go beyond the stage.
