The Department is working with a 15 year old girl who has been in and out of placement since she was a young child. She is currently in placement due to substance abuse by her mother. The placement is struggling financially and I am requesting additional fun things for the child to do. She likes going to movies, chick fil A, going to the mall and doing make up. It would be awesome to have some fun things she can do with her friends where she does not feel like she needs to ask her placement.
