Creating a Family Youth Advisory Council
Aaliyah Alston, Age 15
I have lived with my grandmother since I was 18 months old. I love to read, listen to music, and hang out with friends. I also love taking care of kids. I have lots of cousins that I’ve been taking care of since I was nine.
Ethan McCall, Age 19
I was adopted by my biological aunt. Throughout high school I participated in Marine Corps Reserve Officer Training Corps, fell in love with a family away from home, and graduated while still in the program.
