About

Hello everyone,
My name is Grace, and I'm a first-generation college student born and raised in the Bay Area. In 2014, I learned what life looked like through the eyes of foster children as I provided services as a respite provider for many foster families. Their stories infused me with a deep, intrinsic passion towards becoming a trauma-informed social worker and building upon skills towards helping foster children of California and beyond.
