San Diego Youth Services

Eric is a bright and respectful young man who carries himself with maturity and kindness. He values the relationships he has with his family, especially with his grandmother and his older sister. Eric shares a very close bond with his sister and knows he can turn to her whenever he needs advice, guidance, or encouragement. Having this strong support system has helped Eric stay focused on building a positive future for himself. Eric proudly graduated from high school in December 2025, marking an important milestone in his life. Since graduating, he has been focused on finding employment so he can begin earning his own income and continue developing his independence. Eric takes pride in wanting to support himself and is motivated to create stability in his life. No matter which direction he chooses, Eric’s goal is to work in a field where he can interact with and help people, as he enjoys connecting with others and making a positive impact. Outside of his goals and responsibilities, Eric has a strong passion for sports. His favorite activities are basketball and boxing, which give him a healthy outlet for energy, discipline, and focus.

Eric is a respectful and hardworking young man who recently reached an important milestone—graduating high school in December 2025. He is hoping to experience one last special moment from his high school journey by attending prom. Eric’s prom will be an opportunity for him to celebrate and create lasting memories with his friends. Unfortunately, Eric is not able to attend Grad Night, which makes prom the final chance for him to attend a major high school event. He is hoping for a gift card to Men’s Wearhouse so he can fully experience everything that comes with prom. More than just having an outfit, Eric wants the chance to go into the store, try on different tuxedos, shoes, and accessories, and pick out the perfect look for a night he will never forget. This experience is about feeling confident, included, and proud as he celebrates alongside his friends.
