A Shopping Spree for Jazmyne's 17th Birthday Surprise
Jazmyne, 19 years old
Wish submitted by:
Youth and Family AlternativesJazmyne is a resilient and determined young woman who is currently in foster care and living in a transitional group home. She has been in and out of foster care since she was four years old due to her parents' life-long addictions. Her grandparents decided to close in permanent guardianship in 2018 and then placed her back in foster care when Jazmyne started to present with symptoms of a mental health diagnosis. She recently was faced with a huge decision that she faced with bravery and practicality for the life she wants to live. She is currently working on her GED and recently obtained part-time employment at a retail store. She is very hardworking and driven to live a successful life.
Jazmyne is a typical teen girl who enjoys shopping and pampering herself. Being able to have her own makeup and other self-care products would help her gain confidence. It would also allow her to utilize these products as a way to cope with the symptoms of her mental health diagnosis.
