Eighteen
years ago Nosizwe became a community servant, and in the process of
helping others she experienced a personal transformation. What she
knows first-hand is that when we help others we also help ourselves
because ultimately, we are all interconnected and partners in the
process of social transformation. Nosizwe is a member of the Advisory
Board for the El Camino Foster and Kinship Education Department. She
is in the process of becoming an Adult Supporter for the California
Youth Connection, an organization of present and former foster youth
who advocate for legislative support and resources for foster youth.
