A boxing membership for Frank to enjoy a positive social activity

Posted Nov 27, 2024
Frank is interested in a 3-month boxing membership at Southside Boxing. Although he has previously struggled with social anxiety and has been hesitant to participate in extracurricular activities, he is now ready to give it a try. We believe that this opportunity will benefit Frank as he seeks a part-time job, providing him with a chance to socialize with others. Frank is intelligent and respectful, and we are confident that he will thrive as he engages with people. He enjoys video games and reading, but currently spends much of his time alone. This boxing membership represents a much-needed opportunity for him.

Frankincense is 16 years old and lives in NE

Frank is currently working towards his GED and regularly visits the HUB for assistance when needed. He is an effective advocate for himself, knowing when to seek help from his support system. Although Frank struggles with social anxiety, he attends therapy sessions consistently and practices coping strategies with his CEDARS mentor. He has a strong desire to find a job and start boxing. Frank is dedicated to overcoming his anxiety and stepping outside of his comfort zone. In his free time, Frank enjoys playing video games, reading books, and listening to music. He doesn't spend much time with peers his age, and we hope to provide him with more opportunities to socialize in comfortable settings. Frank is very intelligent and independent, and he is respectful and quite funny once he feels comfortable with others. He has made significant progress, especially in expressing interest in participating in extracurricular activities.
