Meet Kevin Mora, a UCF May 2017 graduate and former foster care child. Mora is staring a career at the Orlando Regional Medical Center microbiology lab.  His past in foster care was difficult but he focused in his schoolwork and thrived at UCF. He says, “You are forced to grow up fast; otherwise, you’ll just drown.” Kevin is among 11 former foster care children graduating from UCF this May. He spent most of his teenage years in foster care until he came to UCF. Now he is a role model for others as he develops his career in microbiology with a job at the Orlando Regional Medical Center.
