Alex

                                Picture of Alex

Alex is described as being a shy, friendly, sweet natured child.  He enjoys playing basketball and watching cartoons, including Spiderman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  He also loves playing with action figures and using his imagination.  His creativity really shines through his art work and school projects.

Alex is 16 years old and in good health.  Chronologically, Alex is in the 11th grade, but performs at a 4th grade level.  He needs a family who supports him in his academic development.  Alex is working on controlling aggression issues and processing through past abuse issues.  He needs a family who will support his therapy, and, provide him with supervision and love.  Alex benefits from redirection and patience. Often times he becomes frustrated with change.  His adoption social worker suggests he transition slowly into his “forever home”.

Alex states he wants a mother, father, and permanent home without dogs.  Due to past abuse issues, it is recommended Alex be the youngest or only child in the home.  He needs a family who is committed to providing him with a safe and stable home where he can grow and develop into a responsible young man.  An out-of-state adoptive placement is a possibility for Alex, providing the family is willing to make multiple visits to Wisconsin that will aid in a comfortable, healthy transition.
