ACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- "It's my 9th year in the system, about to be my 10th,” 16-year old Johneshia tells me.
We're hoping this Jacksonville's Children's segment can help make it her last year in the foster care system. I first met Johneisha in 2009, when she was first featured for our segment. Her smile is just as bright now as it was the day I met her. On our day out together catching up, she told me she's morphing. She's no longer a confused, frightened little girl.
"I think God put me in this position for a reason, me and my brothers and sisters, he's teaching us something,”she says.
Or, maybe someone anonymously called DCF to try and save her life.
"My mom was in an abusive situation,” she shares.
