YOUR TOWN

FORMER PACE STUDENT TELLS HER STORY In just a little over two years, Jasmine Sampson lived in five different foster homes, each one worse than the one before. “I went from having a normal life to living with all these strangers and not feeling welcome,” she said. “You can’t just go home and open your fridge.” Sampson, a former Ormond Beach resident and PACE Center for Girls student, is telling her story in hopes of raising awareness to help fix the current state of the foster care system, which is the basis of the documentary, “Foster Shock.” The film will be playing at 1 p.m. Oct. 27 at the Port Orange Regional Library-Auditorium, at 1005 City Center.
