New Refrigerator for Lena who moved into her own apartment!

Posted Oct 1, 2020
Lena has secured her own basement apartment in a shared home. She will have access to the kitchen in the home to cook and eat but would like to have a small refrigerator in her room to keep snacks and private items. This wish will help Lena feel more comfortable in her new apartment!

Lena is 24 years old and lives in NJ

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!
