Care Plus NJ

Aicha is a strong young woman who sought asylum because of unsafe relationships with her family. Despite her difficult circumstances, she graduated from high school with honors and is now working towards enrolling in college to become a nurse. Aicha has a deep love for music and often sings to comfort those in grief or pain. Her compassion drives her desire to help others who have faced similar hardships. With her great personality and infectious smile, Aicha brings warmth to those around her.

Aicha lives in a supportive living apartment and enjoys cooking for her neighbors, as she considers cooking her "love language." Having experienced times when she didn't have enough food, Aicha wants to help others by sharing her meals and making friends along the way. However, she often finds it challenging to do so because she uses a shared refrigerator, which means her ingredients can sometimes go missing. If Aicha had a small personal refrigerator, she would be able to cook more frequently and connect with others in her community.
