COURAGE TO HEAL
by Marcie Dierforf,
Case Manager
Open Arms seeks to recognize youth within the various programs who have made vast improvements in their treatment while at Open Arms. Therefore, Open Arms presents a "Courage to Heal" award for the "courage to overcome fears from the past, creating hope where helplessness once prevailed."
Open Arms is proud to present the "Courage to Heal" award this year to a young lady who is currently in our foster care program. This young lady was originally placed in the Miriam Home and was able to successfully complete the program and transition into foster care. This young lady has overcome a lot of obstacles bitterness she was always been upbeat and postive. She is always happy and enjoys spreading the happiness to others. She is known amongst her friendsas the one who will cheer them up when they are down. Her foster family enjoys having her in their home and consider her to be a permanent part of their family. We are truly honored to work with this dynamic young lady and present her with the award for all of her avheivements.
