He is very driven and motivated. He communicates and advocates for himself well.”
Carlos would do best with a single dad, mom and dad or two dads. His new family must be fierce advocates for the services that will help him thrive. Their new parent or parents need to be patient, understanding, experienced and trauma informed. The family must be able to provide a structured home with a regular routine. Carlos would do best as the only or youngest children in the family. Carlos would prefer a home with pets if possible! His new family should help him maintain his sibling relationship.
