Tania is heading to Bryn Mawr College this summer.

After many years of challenges, Tania is transitioning to college. “When I came to Brookview House with my mom and two siblings I immediately got involved with their youth program and then their Girls Who Code club for two years.” Tania received a full scholarship to study STEM at Bryn Mawr College. She’s worked at Vertex Pharmaceuticals last summer and will return this summer. After all of these amazing opportunities she acknowledges:

SUCCESS STORY

“Brookview helped me learn to communicate in English and recognized and nurtured my love of art. At first, I didn’t know how to speak English, and it was a big obstacle at school and in the community, so I needed to attend bilingual classes for two years. Now I go to regular classes; I have learned how to communicate in English very well. I joined the Teen Visionaries where I learned about domestic violence and tried photography for the first time. I also attended sculpture classes on Saturday mornings.” –Tania
