Ryan, 20 years old, NM

Wish submitted by:

Ryan recently experienced a change in his living situation after aging out of the foster care system. He was previously living with relatives, but due to his developmental delays, they were no longer able to provide the level of care he needs. Ryan has since moved closer to his biological mother so he can access additional services and support to help him build the skills needed for independent living. In his free time, Ryan enjoys writing music and dreams of one day creating and sharing his own songs. He is also motivated to attend college so he can further explore his passions and continue working toward his goals.

Ryan enjoys going out to eat and often plans ahead to save money on his dining choices. He really loves Panda Express, particularly their noodles, orange chicken, and egg rolls. However, Ryan mentioned that he would like to try something new since he usually orders the same items each time.
