Decorations for Jay to make his new room feel inviting

Posted Apr 25, 2024
Unfortunately, Jay has been placed in numerous foster homes throughout his life. However, he reconnected with his grandparents last year and has been visiting with them on weekends. Jay is so grateful to have found a family connection that can provide him with the stability that he needs. Jay is moving in with his grandparents in June, and he really wants a gift card to Target to buy decorations for his new bedroom.

Jay is 13 years old and lives in NJ

Jelani, or Jay, is currently living in a foster home and is not able to live with his biological siblings. Jelani has been working very hard with his service providers to be able to manage his emotions. Jelani regularly contacts his biological family and thinks about them. Jelani loves to read and aspires to become a journalist when he grows up. Jelani has many friends in school, is a member of the choir, and takes on leadership roles whenever possible.
