New Haven, CT
My name is Victoria, and I live in Connecticut. Right now, I work as a case manager for a nonprofit organization called Youth Continuum. We house young adults ages 18-22 in foster homes who are in DCF care. My goal is to go back to school and get my masters in either Clinical psychology or school counseling. I hope to become a therapist for LGBTQ+ youth and be there for others in need.
