HOLIDAY WISH

A shopping trip for Catelyn to help boost her self-esteem & help her feel "normal"

Posted Dec 17, 2017
Being a teenage girl in high school can be hard and so Catelyn is asking for new clothes so that she can keep up with the latest fashions. Catelyn can be pretty hard on herself and so it is important that feel good at school, when kids can be the cruelest. Also, Catelyn is adjusting to our program right before Christmas so a shopping trip might make her feel like a "normal" teen for just a little bit.

Catelyn is 22 years old and lives in NJ

Catelyn is adjusting well. She is interested in art and gets all A's and B's in school. Because she cares about others, Catelyn sometimes puts her friend's needs before her own. She is currently deciding whether she should pursue finding an adoptive family or go to independent living at the appropriate age.
