A tablet for Daniel to keep in touch with friends

Posted Nov 18, 2024
Daniel thrives on staying connected with the people around him and immersing himself in a wealth of information. His passion for discovering new languages and cultures drives his curiosity and fuels his desire to learn. At the moment, he relies on the family tablet to conduct research for school projects and engage in lively chats with friends through messaging apps. However, he dreams of having his own tablet—an opportunity that would grant him the freedom to explore his interests independently. With his own device, Daniel hopes to demonstrate to his family that he can manage his responsibilities safely and effectively while completing his schoolwork.

Daniel is 16 years old and lives in ME

Daniel is an amazing human and loves to be around people. He is always asking for a hug or a tickle or a snuggle on the couch. He also loves it when someone reads to him. While he has lived in residential care for over 5 years, and hasn't seen any of his biological family for almost 2 years, he is so resilient! Daniel has made the staff and other residents at the group home his family. His favorite thing to do is make them laugh by telling jokes and making silly faces. If there is a camera nearby, he's in front of it asking you to take video and pictures. He loves to be outside in the sunshine, exploring the woods and splashing in the creek and puddles. While he will sometimes say he misses being in a traditional home, his situation hasn't dampened his love of life, family, friends, and adventure!
