My name is Miranda Messenger, I'm 25 years young and the new facilitator for the AMP program in Burlington. I myself was a former foster child, I've been in all the aspects of placement though. I am a mother to two little girls, Allison and Josephine, and I spend my free time either playing with them or playing piano or saxophone. I have a very optimistic and outgoing personality and I am hoping to bring a little spunk to the Burlington program. I'm very excited about this program and grateful for the opportunity to reach out to other kids who are placed out of the home. I am looking forward to meeting all those who support and help with this program.
AMP is a youth-driven, statewide group that seeks to unleash the full potential for personal growth among foster and adoptive children in Iowa. AMP offers leadership opportunities, service learning projects, speaking opportunities, and educational/vocational assistance. AMP also provides the life skills youth need to become self-sufficient, independent adults.
