My schools were scattered throughout Orange County since we moved so much. I was a loner and did not make it through the tenth grade. I found myself on the run pretty much all during my teenage years.
I became a young mother by the age of seventeen and was still on the run. I’ve been through so much. I raised my three children on my own and went back to high school and got off the welfare system and have supported my children on my own.
Thanks to the support from my sister and the teaching of my parents, I was able to fight my way out, and I learned how to overcome violence and be a great mother to my children with the help of the Children’s Home Society. This service helped with child care so I could go back to school and start on a job. I know, if it was not for the services I got to help me get started, I would not have succeeded on starting on my own.ver menos
