Kamalii Foster Family Agency

Jacob was in foster care since the age of 12. He has overcome a lot of tragedy and grief in his young life and has become a man of strong character. He has emancipated himself from foster care and is a hard-working father who has his children residing with him. He loves his two babies and cares for his family in his time away from work. He is such a hard worker that he is known by his co-workers as “Super-Jake”. He is always willing to take on challenging jobs and even returns to his former transitional housing program to offer help and mentor other transitional-aged youth. Jake is also going to college part-time online.

Jacob, having navigated the challenges of the foster care system without steady support, is determined to create a home that feels truly his own as he steps into adulthood. His dream is to build a dining table and chairs, which symbolize stability and craftsmanship, reflecting the future he is striving to achieve. Ready to invest time and effort, he simply needs a little help to get started.
