This letter is in support of my sister of Eve (Eva) Sylvia Ortiz DOC#354516, petition to be granted participation in the FOSA program, so that she may be allowed to be released back into the community so that she may be actively involved in children’s lives once again. I am not only Eva’s sister, but I am also one of the caretakers of her three young daughters, which are ages 7, 11, and 12.

My entire family and I are ready to provide Eva with every aspect of support, and guidance she needs in order to allow her to get back on her feet so that she may take back custody of her children. I believe beyond a doubt that if given the opportunity to participate in the FOSA program, Eva will come home and be the mother that my nieces need. Thank you for your time and attention in this
