Focus Forward: Stories of Hope 2024 Magazine Launch Event

The Stories of Hope Magazine is a beautiful collection featuring the real life stories of people in our very own community who have overcome adversity, who are leading healthy, productive lives and who inspire hope.

At Focus Forward, we work with young people who are touched by the Juvenile Justice and Child Welfare systems, providing them, and their families support and services to guide them on their pathway to success. The individuals and families we serve have experienced generational layers of trauma, injustice and loss. Bringing hope to these youth and families is the reason we create this magazine, and share these stories.

We are grateful to our Story Sponsors and advertisers who made the 8th edition of Stories of Hope possible.
