Arizona's Children Association

Jordan is an easygoing young adult who adapts well to his circumstances while remaining kind and respectful. Although he has never held a job, he has taken advantage of volunteer opportunities during his time in various foster placements. He identifies his skills as being a good conversationalist and possessing perseverance.

Jordan has just started a new placement, which allows him to focus on his mental health. While this is a great opportunity for him, it does come with some challenges—one being that he isn't allowed to look for a job right now. This means he doesn't have any income to buy the essentials he needs. One thing that’s really on his mind is a particular pair of shoes—he's been wanting a set of Crocs. Getting these shoes would help him in practical ways, but more importantly, it would bring him some joy and happiness during this important period in his life.
