Turning Trauma into Triumph for Foster Youth w/Sharon Dunlevy

If you have ever served youth at any point in your career, you know the weight and the wonder of the stories you carry. There are stories of heartache—those moments when young lives were lost to the cracks in the education system, the juvenile justice system, or even within the family structure. And there are stories of triumph—the victories, both big and small, when a young person rises above the odds and steps into a brighter path.

I certainly have my fair share of these stories, and I know you do too. Our guest conversationalist for this Sunday, Sharon Dunlevy, has hers as well. Sharon has dedicated her life to creating more stories of triumph through her tireless work with families fostering our youth. She understands the challenges, the heartbreaks, and the moments of pure joy that come when a young person finds support, stability, and hope.

Through her service, Sharon has witnessed firsthand the power of care, guidance, and mentorship. She has been a part of turning uncertainty into opportunity, helping families navigate complex systems, and ensuring that more young people experience a life filled with possibility. Her stories are not just accounts of challenges; they are proof that dedication, compassion, and resilience can change lives.

Join us this Sunday as Sharon shares her experiences, her insights, and her inspiring stories of the young lives she has touched. Whether you are in youth services, education, or simply care deeply about the next generation, Sharon’s perspective will remind you why every effort matters, why every story counts, and why we must keep creating more moments of triumph for the youth in our communities.
