Background & Objective

The challenge or opportunity you are trying to address for the organization.

Janice Murphy is a 41-year-old white female who identifies as heterosexual. She is currently in a relationship with Thurston Bishop, a 33-year-old African-American Iraqi war veteran. They have lived together for three years. Janice has a six-year-old son, Zane Thomas, from a previous relationship who also lives in the household. The family recently moved to a large city far away from the small town where Janice grew up. Thurston got a good-paying job and it appeared to be a good decision for the family as a whole.
