Sonya and her family have been homeless since she was 3 years old. Over the years, they have moved more than 15times to different shelters around New York City. Moving around was hard on Sonya。At school, Sonya hid her homeless from teachers and other students. She didn’t want to be treated differently from other kids.

In sixth grade, Sonya discovered a way to deal with some of her stress.
