The Imprint Weekly Podcast: Fashioning a Forward Experience for Foster Youth
The Imprint Weekly Podcast recently featured a powerful conversation with ASCI’s President, Founder, and CEO, Dr. Sharon McDaniel, and the Founder and CEO of Think of Us, Sixto Cancel, on the impact of Fashion Forward Kinspire and the importance of creating meaningful opportunities for youth in foster care and kinship care.
The episode explores how exposure to fashion, mentorship, leadership development, and creative experiences can help young people build confidence and expand the way they see themselves and their futures. Through programs like Fashion Forward Kinspire, youth are given opportunities to step into new spaces, explore their talents, and connect with experiences that encourage growth and self-expression.
The conversation also highlights the importance of supporting transition-age youth and ensuring young people in care have access to supportive relationships, resources, and experiences that empower them beyond the child welfare system.
At A Second Chance, Inc., we believe every young person deserves opportunities that inspire confidence, creativity, and possibility.
