Strength Based Community Change (SBCC)Alexa is a foster youth and a full-time community college student with aspirations of transferring to a university. She is a resilient and dedicated young woman who has committed herself to academic success during her first year of college. Beyond her studies, Alexa has discovered a natural talent and passion for art. In her free time, she finds inspiration walking through campus to observe and paint wildflowers. She also enjoys creating portraits for her friends, using art as both a creative outlet and a way to connect with others. Although she is not currently employed, Alexa has made the intentional decision to focus fully on her education as she builds a strong academic foundation for her future. Her perseverance, creativity, and determination reflect her potential to thrive in higher education and beyond.
An iPad would greatly support Alexa’s success as a full-time college student by giving her a portable and efficient way to take notes, access coursework, and stay organized. It would allow her to complete assignments more easily and remain focused on her studies. Plus, an iPad would help her continue developing her artistic talent. She could use it to create digital artwork, practice new techniques, and build a portfolio. As a foster youth who is currently focused on school and not working, this resource would provide essential support for both her education and creative growth.
