We want to see where they came from. Where they’re going, their hopes, their dreams. Our young people come to us with a range of trauma. We want our young moms to learn that trauma should not be a deterrent but rather a motivator in building a future that is achievable. We want them to dream big even with setbacks; the idea is to keep getting up even with stumbling blocks. Coming here was an hour and a half away. But it was something I had to deal with in order to stay with my son. Because no foster home wanted me and my son together. Working to end the cycle of trauma, abuse and homelessness among young women.
