A 23 and Me kit for Corie who has a strong desire to learn about his culture

Posted Oct 20, 2023
Corie's journey in foster care has been a challenging one, as he has no biological family connections to rely on. Despite this difficulty, he remains determined to learn more about his background and culture. His strong desire to connect with his roots shows his resilience and perseverance. With this kit, he will be able to discover more about his heritage and gain a deeper understanding of who he is.

Corie is 19 years old and lives in NJ

Corie is a very kind and caring young adult who has been involved with the Division since he was 9 years old. Corie has multiple diagnoses and is developmentally delayed. He will be able to attend his current school until he turns 21. In school, he has jobs such as a gym teachers aid and making t-shirts and mugs in graphic design. He receives services to help regulate his emotions, build self-esteem and develop coping skills.
