Walden Family Services' Foster Youth Transforms Adversity into a Tiny Home Triumph

RIVERSIDE, Calif., Oct. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In a remarkable tale of resilience triumphing over adversity, a determined young individual working with Walden Family Services and having overcome the hurdles of the foster care system, has realized the dream of homeownership by constructing his own home through a tiny home Program in Santa Clarita. Transitioning from a Transitional Housing Placement program for Non-Minor Dependents (THP-NMD), this individual found their way to Walden Family Services through a referral from their former Clinical Social Worker.

The journey began in an unsafe environment, prompting the youth's entry into foster care. Uncomfortable in previous placements and without a safe space, he worked with Walden Family Services learning about employment opportunities, overcoming budgeting obstacles, and working towards personal and financial goals.

Since joining the Walden Family, he has not only secured full-time employment at a Notary warehouse but has also launched a personal business, saving over $25,000, which he used to construct his own tiny home.

Reflecting on the foster care journey, he shared, "I started foster care when I was 15 years old because my family was very toxic. Since being here I had to learn a lot about the world including how hard it can be, but I did it. It has allowed me to become a self-sufficient person, introduced me to resources I did not know existed, and having the opportunity to have a safe space to live."

Walden Family Services, a nonprofit organization committed to offering comprehensive foster care, adoption, and transitional housing programs for children, youth, and families, played a pivotal role in this success narrative. With a mission to empower individuals to thrive and establish stable, loving homes, Walden Family Services has been serving communities in the Inland Empire, Los Angeles, and San Diego for 47 years.
