One Simple Wish

Tyrese, 21 years old, NJ

Tyrese was adopted by his maternal grandmother, but after a time, she was unable to properly care for him, leading to his removal from her care. He has since spent several years in foster care. As a child on the autism spectrum, Tyrese initially struggled with his behavior and adjusting to life away from home. However, with the support of his foster family and siblings, he has made significant progress and adjusted well after a challenging beginning. Tyrese is known for being helpful and enjoys contributing when he can. One of his favorite activities is coloring, which he has identified as his go-to coping skill.
