A special pair of shoes for Jennie to celebrate independence

Posted Dec 16, 2017
Jennie shared with her advocate that she would like a pair of black & white, high top, Converse shoes. Jennie rarely asks for anything in particular, so this would be a very special wish. As her feet have stopped growing (she's nearly an adult), she will get many years of use from these shoes.

Jennie is 24 years old and lives in IN

This young woman has endured a lot of abuse and neglect in her life. She has been in and out of various institutions for the past several years. She has made amazing progress and soon will be aging out of the system. Despite the odds, she is prepared for and will live a productive and independent adult life.
