New Laptop for John to complete his GED

Posted Jul 2, 2020
John is pursuing his GED as he nears his "aging out" time. The laptop will allow him to successfully participate in the GED program.

John is 21 years old and lives in FL

John has been in the foster care system since age seven. It is hard to believe that in less than six months he will age out of the system. Although a bit anxious regarding this life transition, John has created a future success plan to stay on track and realize his future dreams. Moving from one foster group home to another over the years has created challenges with schooling, both academically and socially. Despite obstacles, John continues to persevere with an immediate goal of obtaining his GED. Once completed, John would like to attend a local college. John is bright and articulate. Given support and encouragement, he will realize his future dreams.
