Wednesday's Child: 11-Year-Old Harley

(MARE) - Harley is a bright, energetic child of Caucasian descent who does very well in school. He enjoys and thrives one-on-one attention and can often be found relaxing on his own with a good book. Harley gets along well with his siblings and enjoys visits with them. Creative, artistic, and energetic, Harley has many stuffed animals that he uses for emotional support. Harley also receives services in school for emotional and social support. He enjoys playing musical instruments and participating in the school band. Harley has expressed a desire to become a police officer when he is older.

Freed for adoption, Harley would fit in with most any family constellation that would commit to keeping him in touch, both virtually and in-person, with his siblings who live in western MA to whom Harley is very close.
