Finding the positive in almost anything, Chad, who prefers to go by “CJ,” is known to be an eternal optimist! Along with his optimism, this guy enjoys sports and swimming. CJ is proud of his karate endeavors. Whether a board game or video game, either provides oodles of entertainment for this teen. Reading is another activity that CJ enjoys; Greg from Diary of a Wimpy Kid is his favorite fictional character, red is the most rad color on his radar, and he likes dogs. Pizza, French fries, and Sour Skittles are the makings of a happy stomach for CJ. His interest in art grows all the time. CJ is a social fellow who happily joins in on any game, activity, or sport. He doesn’t mind the age of the participants; he just wants to be part of the action. He enjoys engaging in conversations with others and connects well with adults. CJ can see himself as a law enforcement officer when he is older.

He is now in the twelfth grade.

CJ would do best in a family with two parents or a single dad. He has significant connections to maintain following placement. Due to these connections, a UTAH family is preferred. Financial assistance may be available for adoption-related services.

For families outside of Utah, only those families who have a completed home study are encouraged to inquire.
