Photolisting Profile for Juan

Juan is a 13-year-old boy from Texas who is hoping to be adopted.

Juan is a neat child with a lot of love and energy. Juan has the ability to make others smile and laugh. He loves to play inside and outside. He enjoys being active and moving around. Juan enjoys reading on his spare time, and being around others. Juan is diagnosed with Downs Syndrome and has little concept of safety issues. He must be closely monitored as he needs constant adult supervision. Juan is attached to his siblings and enjoys his visits with them. He takes pride in being a good brother. He would like to remain in contact with his siblings as they are not a part of this adoption. Visit me at the San Antonio Heart Gallery.

The ideal family for Juan is a family that is patient and understanding to his conditions. The family should have experience with children with special needs and willing to work with Juan. This family will need to be able to provide constant structure and supervision for Juan. The family must be willing to teach and guide Juan continuously throughout his adolescence. The family should be loving, nurturing, and committed to Juan's well being and have realistic expectations for Juan and his capabilities.
