More About Riley (11)
Riley is an energetic, fun, talkative kid! Riley LOVES Pokémon, games and puzzles, and has been getting interested in soccer. Riley says its hard to pick a favorite Pokémon because there are just so many good ones. He plays the trading card game, watches the Pokémon shows and movies, and enjoys sharing his knowledge around Pokémon. Riley likes spending time with peers and telling stories. Riley has been deciding whether he is going to be a Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo fan lately and is leaning towards Ronaldo. Riley loves to be on the go whether he is at the YMCA, biking, or fishing he’s up for adventure!
A family for Riley (11)...
Riley wants to be adopted. Riley does not have much preference about who his family is yet and is working on developing his wants. His team feels he would do best in a home where he is the only child or has older siblings. Ideally, Riley would have a two parent home or a single parent with a lot of supports. A family for Riley would need to have experience with trauma and supporting Riley’s education. It is important that Riley maintains contact, including visits, with his siblings.
If you have a home study, and want to explore if you’d be a good family for this youth, please have your worker contact Ampersand Families.
