Madyson
Let me introduce you to Madyson!
Madyson is a very spunky sixteen-year-old who has discovered false eyelashes and make-up. Madyson has found that shopping and trying new make-up techniques is something that she enjoys pursuing. Madyson still enjoys animals of any kind. She would love to be on a farm and learn about different animals that she could care for. Madyson has a goal of becoming a Vet Tech or possibly an owner of her own pet rescue someday.
Madyson has struggled in her trauma in her past and she has a very difficult time in trusting people. Madyson is learning that she can trust some people, but it takes her a very long time for her to share with someone any pain or joy. Madyson has made significant progress in the past few months and was moved to a group home where she can start doing more independent living activities to prepare herself for adulthood.
Madyson has discovered that she wants to pursue being a vegetarian and give up any type of meat. Madyson is conscious about her eating habits and tries to eat healthy and keep herself in shape.
Madyson has stated that if there would be a family interested in her, she would have to move slow and she would prefer them living in the county where she might be able to have a dog or other animals that she could call her own.

experiences. Jeyshon would like to have a family that supports him in his sporting activities and
allow him to build friendships. Jeyshon wants a family that is there for him through good times
and times that are not so good. Jeyshon wants a family to feel that he belongs somewhere and
that someone does love him for who he is and who he wants to become.
