From Foster Kid to a Helping Hero with Patty Waters

Patty Waters enjoys bringing people, ideas, and inspiration together and hopes to form a dialogue that shares a unique perspective from an adopted teenager. Patty and her 3 siblings were adopted by the Waters family at the age of 13 and grew up in Austin, Texas. Patty and her siblings were in the foster care system for 5 years. She earned her Masters in Healthcare Administration and a Masters in Business Administration from the University of Houston – Clear Lake and currently works as a Healthcare Management Recruiter. Patty has high hopes to encourage and empower current and former foster care youth to pursue their dreams by sharing her story and is grateful to have the opportunity to be a CASA volunteer.
