On Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024, Caidyn Bearfield was awarded the Nikki Chinn Champion of Change Award. Caidyn's dedication to creating positive change is reflected by many things, including:
- Her testimony during the 2020 Columbus Foster Care Forum.
- Her legislative testimony about the importance of establishing a Youth Ombudsman Office
- Her speech during the 2024 Statehouse Rally about the need for Foster to College Scholarships
In the giving of this award, we were also all reminded of the legacy of Nikki Chinn. Her fierce and fearless heart, her protectiveness of youth who experience abuse, and her brilliant brain that always remembered every detail and was able to create countless lists of resources for others.
