Valerie, who is in a kinship placement, wants a Valentine’s Day box because it’s a special way for her to feel included and celebrated among her peers. Being in a kinship placement can sometimes make her feel different, but having her own Valentine’s Day box enables her to take part in the fun and excitement of exchanging cards and treats at school, just like everyone else. For Valerie, it is more than just a box; it symbolizes love, friendship, and belonging during a holiday that honors connections.
