About this Kid

Gabriel is an active teen who enjoys meeting people. Not known for being shy, he has good relationships with both adults and peers in his life, and those who know him best note that he is nearly always smiling. He likes to stay moving by riding his bike, swimming, or playing sports outside. However, he can also get lost in creating art or building new worlds with LEGOs. Gabriel is not picky when it comes to food, but popcorn and pizza are always going to be preferred. Despite Spider-Man being his favorite superhero, he dreams of having his own power to teleport. Gabriel is a fan of the color green, and he is a true lover of dogs and hopes to have a loving family with pets someday.

P.E. is this eighth grader’s favorite subject.

Gabriel would do best in a home where he can be the youngest child. A family with pets in a rural area is preferred; however, his caseworker will consider all family types. He has significant connections to maintain following placement. Financial assistance may be available for adoption-related services.

This is a LEGAL RISK ADOPTIVE PLACEMENT.
