Aaron, 11 years old, NJ |

Wish submitted by:

Aaron is a bright boy who has been diagnosed with autism and ADHD. He is very caring and affectionate, enjoying cuddles and listening to stories or being read to. He loves playing with clay or playdough and enjoys watching videos on his tablet. His family is receiving support from NJ DCFS.

Aaron and his family fled another state to New Jersey due to domestic violence. While at the Social Services office with their CPS worker, Aaron accidentally dropped his tablet and broke the screen. He handled the situation better than expected, but he is still very upset. The family left their home abruptly and was unable to take anything with them. Aaron had his tablet in his hands when they left, and he and the other children have been sharing it for entertainment during their journey. Aaron, who is autistic, is struggling without his tablet. A new tablet would mean the world to him!
