Daniel thrives on activity

-

Daniel is a sweet and friendly 10-year-old boy of Caucasian descent. Shy at first, he opens up as he gets more comfortabl­e. Daniel enjoys basketball, wrestling and karate, and is also in a drawing club. During quiet time, Daniel likes building with Legos. He loves cats. In the third grade, Daniel is an inquisitiv­e child who does well with the additional support he receives.

Daniel is legally freed for adoption. Daniel will benefit from a home with at least one male father figure. He would like a two-parent household, ideally with some children older than he is. Daniel will thrive in a home that can keep him active and maintainin­g a full schedule of extra-curricular activities.

Who can adopt?

Can you provide the guidance, love and stability that a child needs? If you’re at least 18 years old, have a stable source of income and room in your heart, you may be a perfect match to adopt a waiting child. Adoptive parents can be single, married or partnered; experience­d or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ singles and couples.

The process to adopt a child from foster care requires training, interviews and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you, and if so, to help connect you with a child or sibling group that your family will be a good match for.

To learn more about adoption from foster care, call the Massachuse­tts Adoption Resource Exchange at 617964-6273 or go to mareinc.org. The sooner you call, the sooner a waiting child will have “a permanent place to call home.”
