New Sneakers for Alyssa who is struggling to fit in

Posted Nov 5, 2021
Alyssa recently moved to a new resource home and has been really struggling. Alyssa really wants Air Force 1 sneakers for Christmas and knows her mother can’t afford them and doesn't want to ask the resource parent because she just got there. Alyssa told her caseworker her wish during a conversation. Alyssa is trying hard to fit in with new neighbors and friends so receiving this surprise under the tree on Christmas morning would be the best thing ever for Alyssa!

Alyssa is 16 years old and lives in NJ

Alyssa is into makeup, drawing, and riding her bike. She is very easy going and loves any and everything. She is content to stay inside and find something to do or go outside and play. Now that it's summer, she loves to go to the beach with friends. She is a girly girl but also loves nature and horses. She wants to be a fashion designer or a vet when she grows up.
