Girls Court Success Story

A former youth in Judge Stacy Ross’ Girls Court, Brianna put everything she had into diversion and getting her life back on track. While attending court hearings via zoom, she often showed the judge her artwork – custom pieces she makes in her spare time. Shown here, and delivered just yesterday, is a custom piece requested by Judge Ross of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Brianna has now started her own art business, and will graduate high school this fall. She’s hoping to go to college to become an Art Therapist.
