Yankee Tickets for Pedro who loves sports
Posted Aug 6, 2019
Pedro is apart of a special group of young adults that we have served as their CASA advocates at some point, if not still working with them while in care. They are a cohort that we've trained and supervised to facilitate panel presentations around the city ( and even state) to share their stories of having been in the foster care system in hopes of creating change and reform.
They would like to try and attend a game as a group as a community builder either on 8/16 and 8/30.
Pedro is 28 years old and lives in NY
Pedro is a member of CASA-NYC's Youth Leadership Council. He aged out of foster care last summer when he moved into his first apartment through a supportive housing program! ! Pedro continues to be active with CASA through his advocate and his work on the YLC- he speaks on panels to judges, attorneys, case workers and even other young adults who remain in care to share insight about his experiences and guide future work with youth. Pedro is an industrious young man who has worked many jobs - construction, catering, management, and maintenance to name a few. He adores video games and playing with his dogs. He found his forever family when he was placed there early on in his foster care journey. and maintains contact with them.

"George Steinbrenner said, “Surround yourself with amazingly intelligent men & women. The people I work with not only are smarter than I am, possessing both intellectual & emotional intelligence, but also share determination to succeed. I will not make an important decision without them.” Look at the others with you at the game. You are all the intelligent men & women George spoke about. Continue making positive changes in your lives & in the universe. Enjoy the game & of course…Go Yanks!! – “T”"
