A Bed for Angelique who just moved to Cleveland

Posted Jul 9, 2021
Angelique loves her new home and is so excited to explore her new city. She had to leave a lot of things behind including her bed. She is currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor. Angelique cannot wait to make her new place feel more like home!

Angelique is 32 years old and lives in VA

As the youngest of 5 children, Angelique entered the foster care system at 5 years-old due to her parent's substance use. For a period of time she was separated from her siblings and families and endured several placements and significant trauma. During her high school years, both of her parents passed away. However, throughout her life, both before and during foster care, Angelique turned to her education to cope with my family life and she believes this saved her for falling into similar cycles. She has found her way into the the world of advocacy and has made it her mission to fight for education services for youth in foster care so they too can become stable, self sufficient adults.
