Liz

Liz’s life has been a roller coaster, but living in a supportive environment has meant many positive changes. As she studies for a degree in social work, her world today is a far cry from the years in and out of foster care, and time spent in the sex trade. The turning point for Liz came after serving five years in a federal prison. Upon release, she underwent surgery that changed her life: Liz is a post-operative transsexual. She also entered detox and secured housing at The Franklin. Currently she leads workshops for Vancouver Coastal Health’s SHARP Access Project and enjoys bowling, dancing, and video games.
