Looking for a Permanent Home

The children below are looking to connect with a forever family and a place to call home.

Jenny & Amber – FAMILY IN PROGRESS

Jennifer or “Jenny” as she prefers to be called is as unique as her freckles! This 11 year old has a positive demeanor and her smile can brighten a room. Jenny can be shy in group settings but is building her confidence and finding her voice. Jenny finds it hard to narrow down her favorite things, she likes everything!
She is energetic and enjoys spending time with friends. She is a loving big sister and always looks out for her younger sister, Amber.
Little sister, Amber, may be younger and smaller, but she makes up for this with her feisty personality. At seven years old, she prefers to be the leader and goes after what she wants. She has no trouble naming all of her favorite things in any category!
Both girls like to play outside and are not afraid to get dirty. Jenny and Amber love having their hair braided and playing dress up. They can often be found playing pretend as Power Rangers or princesses, depending on the day. Jenny and Amber would like to explore sports and other interests with a family. These sweet sisters are looking for a family that can keep up with them and provide a safe and loving home where they can grow up together!

This is a legal risk adoption.

He’s an action hero fan and his favorite character is ”Ironman”. Tylei is an active and engaging young man who will tell you he loves basketball, watching television and riding his bike.

He enjoys working with his hands, assisting with yard work and completing odd jobs around the house. Tylei could benefit from a highly structured home with a parent(s) who can set appropriate boundaries and support his current educational goals.

David – Adopted

David is a sweet seven year old boy. His infectious smile shows off his charming dimples. David has good eye contact and enjoys engaging with adults and other kids. David can be silly, laughs easily, and revels in one-on-one attention. David is independent and likes to try to do most everything himself or with only a little assistance. He enjoys school and generally does well with instructions and activities. David wears glasses at school, but likes to have a break from them when at home. You would never know from his slender frame that David has a great appetite and has never met a food he does not like!

David does have special needs and will require a patient and nurturing family that is committed to being his cheerleader, coach, and most importantly, his loving forever family.
