Joshua is a sensitive shy 14-year-old Hispanic boy who is learning how to ride a skate board and loves to play basketball. He enjoys school, where he is in the 9th grade, and likes learning new things, especially about science. Joshua loves movies, especially ones about animals and super heroes, and also likes “chowing down” on pizza and Chinese food. Joshua is receiving therapy to help him address his past abuse and neglect issues, and is making progress in learning to trust adults. He will need an adoptive family who will continue to support him with his treatment needs. Joshua would enjoy a family who will take him on outings, but mostly, one who will love him unconditionally for who he is.
