Think of Us

Josiah is a foster youth with a gentle spirit and quiet presence, and he has already made a lasting impression on his new family. Although he speaks very little, his face lights up during playtime with other children. Food offers special comfort to Josiah, and mealtimes often elicit a rare but enthusiastic "Yes" from him, a small yet significant sign of his developing trust.

For Josiah, a trip to Disney would be a great way to help him feel safe and comfortable enough to share more of himself with his new family. The colorful characters and fun activities at Disney could inspire him to connect more with his feelings, something his foster family doesn't always see. This special experience would let them share joyful moments together, helping to strengthen their bond. It could be an important step for Josiah, helping him open up and create lasting memories during this significant time in his foster care journey.
