The Andris Wofford 40-Hour DV Training Legacy Scholarship Application
Loading...
Andris Wofford was a beautiful soul who is celebrated for her compassion, determination and as a promising social worker, deeply rooted and grounded in justice. She is remembered as a loving mother to two daughters, Ava and Averie, a daughter, a sister, a friend, and colleague. Her family remembers her as "vibrant," "sweet" and "full of life."
Andris had worked as a case manager for Child Link, a Chicago child welfare organization where she worked with teenagers between the ages of 16 to 19 who had experienced extended stays in foster care. Andris already had the heart and passion of a social worker which led her to pursue her Master’s degree at Dominican University’s School of Social Work. Andris was around one semester away from obtaining her MSW. Despite unexpected events and life challenges put in front of her, Andris remained committed and steadfast in completing her program and wanted to dedicate her MSW to her daughters, Ava and Averie.
Andris chose social work to advance social justice issues, human rights and expand opportunities to minoritized populations. She truly embodied the essence of Caritas and Veritas.
