Aj is preparing to embark on her winter classes, and having a reliable phone is essential for her to stay connected and ensure her safety. After being without a phone for several years, she feels the weight of the isolation that can come from not being able to reach out to her family, friends, and classmates. A phone would not only allow her to maintain her relationships but also facilitate communication with her professors and the staff at her group home. Moreover, it would serve as a vital tool for accessing important information, such as the bus schedule, enabling her to navigate her daily routines with ease and confidence. Aj truly longs for the opportunity to connect with the world around her once again.
