Narissa’s story: how a mentor changed my life

June 28, 2017/in Community, Donate, Latest News, The Pyjama Foundation Blog /by ydsdevpyjama

After the loss of her father, Narissa entered the foster care system at just eight years old.

Separated from her mother who struggled with mental illness, Narissa began her life bouncing from home to home, eventually living with six different families throughout her time in foster care.

Now 21, Narissa is sharing her experiences of growing up in foster care to help foster children, and how one special ‘Pyjama Angel’ changed her life.
