Wish submitted by:

Anndrea is currently in foster care and is excited to be moving into a foster home after spending a year in a residential facility. This is a big and positive step for her, and she is looking forward to having a more family-like environment. Anndrea has worked hard to process her past experiences and continues to use the coping skills she has learned. She enjoys attending school and is focused on her future, with a goal of becoming a daycare teacher after graduating from high school. Anndrea is a kind and caring young woman who is always willing to help her peers and support those around her.

Anndrea is preparing to move into a foster home soon, and she is very excited about this new chapter in her life. After spending the past year in a residential facility, she has had limited access to technology and is looking forward to having more independence. One thing Anndrea is really hoping for is a phone of her own. Her foster parents agree that having a phone would be beneficial as she adjusts to her new home and school. It would help her stay connected with trusted adults, reach out when she needs support, and communicate with the new friends she makes. Having her own phone would give Anndrea a greater sense of independence while helping her feel connected and supported during this important transition.
