James, 21 years old, UT

James aged out of foster care and immediately went to work as a dishwasher. He worked his way up and became a cook. He's incredibly responsible, hard-working and thoughtful. After being laid off, James became homeless, but with the support of a local organization, has been able to move from the homeless shelter to a new apartment, and is starting a new job. James is looking forward to returning to school, and loves dogs, birds and all kinds of animals.
