Waiting Children:Hoss
Hoss, age 15 [photo by Dan Pearlman]

Hoss has an outgoing personality and a good sense of humor. Hoss is currently in Treatment Foster Care and is doing well. He has two older siblings with whom he wishes to stay in contact. He also has a good relationship with his biological mother and wants to maintain contact. Hoss is good with children and he makes friends easily. Hoss enjoys cooking, camping, being outside and hunting. He likes to eat chili (with pork), hamburgers, barbeque ribs and ice cream. He is very helpful around the house and does his chores without any complaints!

Hoss’s goal is life is to be a chef. He would benefit from a home which will provide structure and give him encouragement with his education … like many children, Hoss does not particularly enjoy school.
