Photolisting Profile for Jacob

Jacob is a 13-year-old boy from Virginia who is hoping to be adopted.

If you enjoy water or travel, Jacob may be the kid for you! He is a Caucasian youngster who loves to swim and run through sprinklers in the summer. During the winter, he enjoys snowboarding and playing outdoors. Jacob is the adventurous type, and he would someday like to meet “Spiderman”. He wants people to know that he is a smart kid with a lot of potential. Because of his past, Jacob will need help from his new family to develop a sense of belonging and sense of trust. He really wants to be in a family and has a lot of love to share, but it takes a long time for him to trust anyone and open up to them. Before coming into care, Jacob had no rules, so his new family must be able to set boundaries, provide structure and discipline and follow through with consistency when consequences are needed. A real family who won’t give up on him is what Jacob needs to help him deal with life in a positive way. Are you his real family?
