Lena, 25 years old

Wish submitted by:

Lena is a very hardworking, motivated young adult. Lena became involved with DCPP at a very young age due to her parent's untreated mental health issues. Despite the challenges Lena has faced herself, she has shown resilience. Lena has maintained employment at a local factory and has finally moved into her own apartment. Lena recently started an online eyelash business and also loves doing hair on the side because she is able to help them feel better about themselves. Lena is a great cook and loves to clean!

Lena will be aging out of DCPP in November 2020. Lena has endured a hard upbringing and has faced several issues throughout her childhood and adolescent. Lena has worked very hard on her mental health issues and has found peace in her upbringing and is motivated to make a change. Lena has obtained work and has recently opened her own eye-lash business. Lena is going to move into her own apartment, which she believes will be the missing piece to her puzzle. We think that giving Lena a key chain to hold her new keys will be a symbol of how hard she has worked in her life!
