Picturing A Home For Every Child
Waiting Children:Kayla
Kayla, age 13

Kayla is a wonderful young lady with a warm smile, who can be very social and outgoing. She enjoys arts and crafts, writing in her journal and spending time cooking Mexican food with her foster mom. Kayla loves pets and hopes to have animals in her forever family. 

Kayla would do best with a single mother or a strong two-parent home. In order for her to thrive, the family must be able to provide consistent boundaries and structure, as well as reassurance that she is loved and that she is an important part of the family.
