Introducing Adrian

Adrian is a bright, inquisitive and adventurous child. He is strong willed and self assured. Adrian enjoys being outdoors, especially when he is able to go skateboarding. He is very creative, humorous, and artistic. Adrian likes playing and helping to take care of the dog in his current home. He enjoys playing with Legos and tries very hard to please others.

A closer look….
Adrian has overcome a difficult past and is wary of openly discussing his adoption plan at this time. He has been making great strides in learning how to effectively and appropriately manage his emotions. Adrian is taking this time to remember he is just a kid and not worrying about things that he cannot control. He has done very well when provided a structured environment and advance notice and preparation for when his routine is being altered. At school, Adrian does best when provided encouragement and support with his studies.

How you can help…
Adrian is in need of an adoptive family that can provide him with a loving home with a consistent and predictable routine. He would do well with a strong one or two-parent family who are on the same page in regards to discipline and rules in the home. Adrian would do best in a family with older children as he would benefit from positive role models in the home. If there are children near his age in the home, Adrian would benefit from sisters, as he can be competitive with brothers his age. The family must be willing to seek out any support services that would be helpful towards his well being. In addition, the family must be active advocates for Adrian in school to ensure he receives all the necessary assistance to help him reach his fullest potential.
