In 2018, her children were placed in the foster care system as a direct result of her substance use disorder.  After a year-long dependency case, she was reunited with her children and has maintained sole custody as well as her sobriety.\nIn 2020, Roxana met with a group of Parent Partners and parent advocates that encouraged her to return to a system that needed parent representation and her voice. With in a year, Roxanna became a Peer Specialist with the Office of Regional Council and made her dreams of working with parents a reality. She currently works with parents, their attorneys, and a social worker to support them in reunification with their children. She made a commitment to lift the voices of parents within the system by sitting on as many boards, advisory committees, and investor stakeholder meetings as she could.\nGuiding parents and allowing them space to express their deepest needs is one of Roxana’s greatest strengths. She is committed to the work of constant learning and growing in a world that is ever changing and not always focused on parents.\n\n \n“I just want you to know if you are out there and you are\nbeing really hard on yourself right now for something that\nhas happened, it’s normal. That is what is going to happen\nto you in life. No one gets through unscathed. We are going\nto have a few scratches on us. Please be kind to yourself and\nstand up for yourself. Please!”\n– Taylor Swift.\n \n\nBe sure to join us next Monday night to hear these women’s powerful message.\nInvite a Friend!
