Thirteen-year-old JJ is a fun loving boy who enjoys riding his bike, listening to Ariana Grande, trying new hairstyles, and making friends everywhere he goes.

JJ likes to channel his creative side at school and says his favorite classes are music and English.

JJ is looking for a forever family that will love and accept him as well as nurture his incredible imagination. He most looks forward to having a family to celebrate holidays with and is open to doing so with a one or two-parent family.

JJ does have strong relationships with his siblings and would like to maintain these relationships post adoption.
