About Joshua
Joshua, who goes by Josh, is a laid-back, sweet, and easy-going young man who values connection and progress. He takes pride in how far he has come, with one of his biggest goals being to complete high school, a goal he talks about with genuine pride. Josh enjoys simple, meaningful routines: hanging out with friends after school, keeping his room clean, and helping with chores without much fuss. He likes structure, but he also appreciates flexibility and the chance to earn trust, something he has been working hard to do.
Josh spends his free time playing basketball, video games, and card or board games, and he enjoys being outside when the weather allows. Weekends often mean movies, time with family and friends, trampoline parks, or local community events. He laughs easily at jokes and brings a calm, steady presence to the people around him. Holidays matter to him, especially Halloween and Christmas. Christmas holds particular significance because of his Christian faith, which is an important part of his life. Josh hopes to continue learning about his faith, attending church, and celebrating religious holidays in a home where his beliefs are respected, even if his family does not share them.
Over time, Josh has made notable strides at home and at school. With the right supports in place, he has earned increased responsibility, flexibility, and independence. He is now preparing for a transitional living setting where he can work, manage money, and build practical life skills. This next step reflects his growing confidence and readiness to take on more responsibility. Josh is curious about the world and open to new experiences, if he could travel anywhere, he would want to go everywhere.
Josh would do best with experienced parents who can offer steady guidance while continuing the supports that help him succeed. He envisions a forever family that enjoys spending time together, going to the movies, and sharing everyday moments. While he could fit into many family dynamics, he would prefer a mom and dad, a home with pets—especially a dog or cat—and an urban environment with access to activities and resources. Josh brings energy, warmth, and a genuine desire to keep moving forward, and he is ready for a family who can walk alongside him as he continues to build his independence and his future.
