John

John is a handsome and charismatic sixteen-year-old with a bright future ahead of him. If he has his way, John would spend all of his free time playing basketball and sharpening his skills. He is a Celtics fan, and plans to join his school's basketball team in the fall. You will never find this stylish young man without clean sneakers and clothes that match.

John is goal-oriented, and he plans to attend college after completing high school. This self-described city boy is not interested in living on a farm, although he is open to exploring life in the suburbs. He needs a family to love him, accept him, and help guide him through his teenage years. John recently said, "I want a family who will knowingly love me so that I can love them back." He wants to belong to someone and is open to any family constellation. Although his Puerto Rican and Dominican heritage is important to John, he is open to a family of any race because, as he says, "Love is blind." 

John requests that interested families be honest, non-judgmental, and open to continued sibling contact.
