Meet Collin

Collin's social worker shares that Collin is a wonderful young man who has big dreams of what he wants to do in the world. He can’t stop dreaming big! Collin has talked about being an engineer and a mechanic and a few other things. Collin has many ideas for what he would like to do when he is older, but whatever it will be, for sure it will be a hands-on job as Collin loves to work with his hands and get into the middle of things.

Collin enjoys helping others, which includes preparing family meals, which has spurred his interest in cooking. Helping out with meal prep and learning more about cooking is something Collin may want to explore in the future.

In school, Collin does his best work when he’s got a lot of great, motivating support. Having a good relationship with his teachers is super helpful, as is having mentors available for his need. Learning how to navigate the social aspect of school doesn’t always come easy for Collin but, with the right support and guidance, he’ll go far. The structure and support of an adoptive family will be so beneficial for his present and future. Collin rocked this last semester of school and got a great GPA, but he said he could do better and plans to do so. An adoptive family who can support Collin during transitional periods and with school will be super beneficial for him.

Collin’s team is excited to hear from active families who will welcome Collin and his endless drive with open arms. A family who enjoys hiking, working on cars, and being outdoors would be awesome. Besides being active, Collin’s team hopes to hear from experienced, patient, nurturing households. He’ll likely do best as an only child, but he does enjoy being with other youth his age. He’s also close with a couple of his relatives and it is important to him to maintain those relationships.

If you are interested in learning more or adopting Collin, please let us know. We would love to find this effervescent kid the adoptive family he deserves.
