Courtney, 18 years old

Wish submitted by:

CASA NJ - Essex County

Courtney is a smart, loving young lady in foster care for many years. She experienced many types of trauma before entering foster care and is working hard to overcome her fears. Despite her young age, Courtney is now a young mother. Courtney is still working hard at school and maintaining her honors, showing much growth and responsibility for someone so young.

Courtney moved into her very first home with her baby son a few months ago. Still struggling to furnish it as a single mother, Courtney is hoping to have a TV for their living room so she can watch educational and fun cartoons with him. The money she makes from her job is enough to cover essential expenses, but unfortunately not enough for small everyday luxuries.
