Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)

Ashli has experienced many ups and downs in the foster care system, but through it all, she has remained strong and hopeful. Her Ashli's journey has not been easy; moving between homes and adapting to new environments has required a lot of courage. Despite the challenges, she has grown into a thoughtful, compassionate, and determined young woman. Her time in care has taught her the values of stability, resilience, and self-expression. Ashli's greatest strengths lie in her creativity, empathy, and determination, as she expresses herself through art and writing to process her feelings. She often uplifts those around her, demonstrating great emotional strength even during her own struggles. In her free time, she enjoys drawing, journaling, and exploring new ideas through reading and educational videos. With her gentle spirit and unique perspective, Ashli uses her past to fuel her dreams and inspire her creative work.

Having an iPad would significantly impact Ashli's life. It would provide her with a powerful tool for drawing, journaling, and exploring digital art, allowing her to enhance her skills and express herself in new ways. The iPad would also support her education by enabling her to access schoolwork, research topics she is passionate about, and stay organized. For Ashli, the iPad would not just be a device; it would serve as a creative outlet, a learning tool, and a means to stay connected to her passions and goals.
