Rachel wakes up on a cold slab of cement to find her mother lying beside her, stiff and cold and slightly blue. Already homeless, Rachel now finds herself alone. She’ll have to make her way through the streets of Chicago scavenging food and panhandling for small change. A woman passing by drops a few coins in her cup and offers Rachel a piece of advice, “If you want off the streets, get an education.”
An accident leaves Rachel hospitalized and Child and Family Services are called in to assist. Rachel finds herself being cycled through the foster care system. Getting an education becomes her goal, but she’ll have to endure dysfunctional families and the bullying of fellow students to graduate. The odds are against her. It will take all her strength to escape her past and become the person she aspires to be.
