Foster Parent
I come from a life where there was a time when I had no home, no safety, and no sense of belonging. I was a child who could not be fostered, drifting between the streets and group homes. I was not seen. I was not heard. I was labelled. I was dismissed and physically abused by the very people who were supposed to protect me. Surviving homelessness as a child—born from domestic and family violence
Foster Parent
I come from a life where I was always loved, supported, and protected. I was raised in a stable home with parents who worked hard, cared deeply, and made sure my brother, my sisters, and I had every opportunity to succeed. A childhood built on strong family values, private schooling, good education, and the kind of security I believed was every ones reality.
