Louisa flourishes with the support of her Case Manager

Louisa flourishes with the support of her Case Manager

Louisa is a typical teenager, she likes to listen to music and read. Originally, she was living with her mother in another county, but was struggling academically and not learning age-appropriate life skills. She moved to Charlotte to be in the care of her grandmother. Louisa was being bullied at school, and not on track to graduate with the rest of her peers. She was temporarily removed from her home school and ended up at Turning Point Academy and while there met with Thompson’s counselors.

 

Louisa and her grandmother were referred to our School-Based Case Management team who helped Louisa identify and focus on her goals, and supported her in achieving them. This, coupled with Louisa’s determination led to her to improving her grades. She will now graduate on schedule this June. Louisa works a full-time job and set her sights on becoming an aesthetician. Her case manager helped Louisa reach out and set up an interview with a recruiter to start this goal into motion.

 

Seeing Louisa overcome her obstacles and achieve her goals has been so rewarding!’ ~Louisa’s Case Manager.
