Zachary will benefit from a family who will allow regular contact with his brother who is not a part of this adoption. His adoptive family will ensure that Zachary continues to receive any services he may need for his overall emotional well being and school progress. Zachary needs opportunities to be involved in activities that relate to his cultural heritage. His family will need patience as Zachary works through and processes his feelings and plans for the future.
