Vanessa is a Teen Challenge Graduate. As a young child she struggled with self-worth. Through her time with Teen Challenge, she grew close to the Lord and found purpose in life. “It’s important to me to help the young girls at the Ruth’s Haven Teen Girl’s Center learn to love themselves,” says Vanessa. She’s passionate about teaching them about Jesus and forming healthy relationships with their families.
