Children, Youth and Families Department

Katrina has been in foster care for a few years and has successfully adjusted to her situation, finding a family with whom she feels a good fit. She actively participates in sports at school and is currently a member of the wrestling team. Katrina enjoys school, with math being her favorite subject, and she consistently earns excellent grades. Her goal is to attend college and then medical school, where she hopes to become a neurosurgeon.

Katrina has been actively exploring colleges and has even started taking some college classes. To help with her studies, she has requested a laptop so that she can complete her assignments without relying on the computer lab. She believes having a personal laptop will enhance her efficiency and allow her to work on projects more flexibly. Additionally, it will enable her to access online resources and collaborate with classmates more easily.
