MEET JESSE
AGE 9
Meet Jesse, a sweet and helpful young boy passionate about superheroes, Minecraft-type video games, and animals! Jesse is currently managing ADHD and has made significant progress. While he has faced challenges with anger, his behavior has improved significantly in a therapeutic foster care (TFC) home. Jesse is navigating the emotional aftermath of a failed adoption and the recent separation from his sibling, which has understandably caused him sadness. He is very lovable and sensitive to others’ feelings.
Jesse needs a loving and structured environment, either with a single-parent or a two-parent household. He would thrive best in a home with older children or no other children and a family that allows him to maintain contact with his sister. Jesse has a strong preference for a home with pets. While he enjoys most foods and has a particular fondness for candy and sweets, he continues to work on food insecurity issues stemming from his past. With the proper support and stability, Jesse has the potential to continue growing and overcoming his challenges.
In partnership with Project Zero, Do South® features a waiting child, or sibling group, in foster care in Arkansas. To inquire about these incredible children, visit theprojectzero.org.
