Aneishia has been working with at risk youth for the past 15 years, is trained in trauma informed care and is passionate about thinking about trauma first when dealing with children and families. Aneisha joined Children’s Home Society of Florida in September
of 2013, and has spent the last three years as the Therapeutic
Court Case Manager in Palm Beach. She knew it would be a challenging caseload:
children and teens with multiple placement disruptions, runaways, mental health
crises/Baker Acts, and many youth on psychotropic medications. Aneisha took the
hardest of all foster care cases and welcomed the opportunity to look at each
child with a “fresh set of eyes”. Instead of judging them based on their
history, she believes in them and knows that permanency for even ‘these kids’
is not a bridge too far. She shared that it is amazing to watch her clients be
engaged in the process and see how excited they are to think that they may have
some say and some contribution to what their future will look like.
