A Smart Watch for Jason who is an Aspiring Music Producer

Posted Feb 5, 2021
Jason requests a Smart Watch if at all possible for his 20th birthday. He genuinely never asks for much so this particular wish was a special request. He is an aspiring producer of music and having updated technology is important to him. Despite much hardship including housing insecurity, Jason was able to graduate high school during this pandemic and has enrolled in an online program that will teach him how to become a producer. The Smart Watch will also be a great resource for him in terms of scheduling his days and staying organized. It will also be a great tool to make sure he remains active and burns off all his extra energy. He is adamant about finishing his music program and succeeding in life by building his own business from the ground up. He is extremely proud of the leaps and bounds he has made despite his circumstances in life! This wish means so much to him and will help him grow even more professional and creative.

Jason is 22 years old and lives in NJ

Jason has had quite a difficult past. He walked into a local division office requesting shelter when he was 17 years old. The Division obtained custody of him, as his adoptive father passed away in 2009 and his adoptive mother was unable to care for him due to her chronic medical condition and Jason’s behavioral challenges. Jason is still under the care and supervision of the Division while working diligently to improve his life. Jason has been in several replacements since his removal from his adoptive home. He continues working towards independent living with the help of the Division. He is a high school graduate, and has completed the Life Skills Program thereby allowing him the tools necessary to begin working towards an independent life as a young adult. He currently works part-time and is also attending a two-year online school for Music Production. He is doing extremely well with his courses given his circumstances. Jason has had many difficult setbacks in life, but he continues moving forward. He has grown by leaps and bounds over the years! Jason’s hobby is creating music which led him to enroll in the online Los Angeles Film School for Music Production. Creating musical tracks for others helps him earn extra income when he isn’t working. Jason is determined to complete his online schooling and move forward in starting his own business.
