Biographie de Izzy Wagner

Izzy Wagner was 15 when she first experienced the Foster Care System. She was in one of the hardest moments of her life when her parents agreed it was best. As an adult, Izzy has realized that she should have been in the system a lot earlier than 15 but also realizes that she got lucky to be fostered by family. Izzy Wagner works on one of the Minnesota State Boards, with four different non-profits across Minnesota, and one nation wide as a Youth with Lived Experience.
Izzy Wagner has published a couple of articles with The Imprint as well. "I wrote this book to remind anyone who is struggling, whether it be with the Foster Care System or in general, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I remember that darkest point in my life and want to be someone's reason to keep going when they can't find anything else to keep them here. Just a little bit of hope can go along way" Izzy Wagner states.
