First, it is important to understand why Juliana Kis was so young when she committed herself to being a social worker. As a single parent, she had no support and very few opportunities. She felt like no matter what she did, she was not good enough for anyone. That is why, even as a teenager, she became so interested in helping other people and helping them find the strength that was inside of them to make their own dreams come true.
In the United States Nationality Hall of Fame there is a category of individuals who were very devoted to their nationalities. Among this group are some of our nation’s greatest leaders including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and even future president of the United States John F. Kennedy. Juliana was a strong and determined person who saw the importance of her role as a social worker and felt that it was very important for people to have the right to be proud of their nationality. That is why she decided to become a citizen of Dominican nationality in order to enjoy all of the benefits of being a U.S. citizen without having to give up her citizenship.
One of the most important things to remember about Juliana was her height. At one time, people thought that being too tall was a death sentence. That is not the case any longer. If you are born with an abnormally short height, you can go forward with your life. There are plenty of heights for a woman to be proud of. What you do with it is up to you.
