Joey is a resilient teenager currently under legal guardianship with two loving caregivers he calls Mom and Dad, along with his two brothers. Despite the challenges posed by his birth mother's struggles with substance abuse and the absence of his birth father, Joey remains focused on his future. He enjoys spending time with his girlfriend and friends, balancing the typical pressures of adolescence while striving to make the right decisions despite peer pressure. With dreams of graduating high school and attending college, Joey is a good kid with a strong heart and a hopeful outlook on life, determined to succeed and create a brighter future for himself.

Joey has been working hard in school and is keeping his grades up. Joey is currently using a laptop at home that only works while plugged into the charger. Joey is asking for a new laptop so that he doesn't have stress about always having it plugged in to get his work done at home.
