Hope Ignited

After aging out of the foster care system at 18, Maygan Martinez had an unexpected accident and found herself homeless. With the help of VOA Utah's Youth Resource Center, Maygan found the support and space to ignite her vision. Today, Maygan is a cofounder of the nonprofit 1999 Collective which connects youth aging out of the foster care system with resources.
