Andrew, 11 years old, OH

Andrew is a bright young boy who has faced significant instability in his life. After being adopted, he was later removed from his adoptive family's care, through no fault of his own, and is now adjusting to a new foster home. This transition has been very challenging for him. The repeated changes in his living situation have made it increasingly difficult for Andrew, especially as he struggles in school, particularly with understanding healthy and safe boundaries. Despite everything he is going through, Andrew remains kind and hopeful. Support systems are now in place to help him through this difficult transition, which no child his age should have to experience.
