After being enrolled and active in JROTC at her high school and the LINKS program through DSS, Lisa stopped attending and began engaging in risky and impulsive behaviors. Lisa’s foster family made it clear that they were disappointed with her actions, but that they were family and would not give up on her. Lisa quickly saw that she was putting her well-being at risk and her foster placement too. She re-enrolled in the JROTC program and began seeking a part-time job. Lisa graduated high school and is now a full-time college student, as well as a full-time manager at a local grocery store.
