An Xbox for Linette to feel at home in her new placement
Posted Jan 16, 2025
Linette eagerly shared her desire for an Xbox, a gateway to connect and engage in the vibrant world of online gaming with her friends. Having faced numerous hardships throughout her life, she often finds it challenging to step out of her comfort zone and explore new experiences. Gaming has always been a cherished passion for her, serving as a source of joy and escape. However, in her new foster home, she has been unable to dive back into this beloved activity due to a lack of access to gaming equipment. An Xbox would not only reignite her enthusiasm for gaming but also enable her to maintain connections with her friends, fostering existing relationships and opening the door to new friendships within her foster home. With the console, Linette could create a supportive community, finding comfort and camaraderie through shared gaming experiences as she navigates her journey of adaptation and growth.
Linette is 15 years old and lives in PA
Linette entered foster care just after her 13th birthday due to significant concerns regarding severe abuse and neglect. Her first placement lasted about a year, during which she faced challenges with her mental health and felt a notable absence of support and care. However, she experienced a respite before being officially moved to a new placement. In this environment, Linette seems much happier and has access to the support she needs. She is now setting several goals and developing plans for her future, marking a positive turn in her journey.
