Wish submitted by:
NJ DCFS - Ocean CountyJelani, also known as Jay, is currently living in a foster home separate from his biological siblings. He regularly keeps in touch with his family and often thinks about them. He loves to read and aspires to become a journalist in the future. In school, Jelani has many friends, is a member of the choir, and actively takes on leadership roles whenever possible.
Jay has experienced multiple placements in foster care throughout his life, having been removed from his biological parents on three separate occasions and residing in 15 different resource homes. In 2022, he reconnected with his grandparents, and they have been meeting monthly to rebuild their relationship. Jay is set to move in with his grandparents this summer, and the entire family is eagerly anticipating it. However, Jay's new bedroom, located on the second floor, becomes excessively hot during the summer. He has requested an air conditioner for his room to make the transition more comfortable for him when he comes home at the end of the day.
NJ DCFS - Ocean County requests this wish for Jay.
