Adrian, 13 years old, CA

Adrian and his siblings were removed from their home due to abuse and domestic violence, and he has been in foster care since then. He has had a very difficult time and has been extremely withdrawn. Initially, he was not eating or communicating with anyone. Recently, he has started eating again, but only in front of males, not females. Adrian is struggling to start school in person; he gets so nervous that he refuses to go. Although he is very quiet and shy, he enjoys playing video games and games on his phone.
