Brianna's forever family will be able to meet her where she is and be willing to build a lasting connection with her. A two-parent home will offer Brianna the most support and she would benefit from a parent who can stay at home or have a flexible schedule to meet her educational, emotional, and behavioral needs. Brianna has a strong desire for connection and to fit in with her peers. Brianna’s forever family will help her navigate peer relationships in a healthy manner and will help her build social skills. Her family will advocate for her as needed. Brianna would do well with a family that has pets. Brianna would do best with children who are older than her who can be positive role models.
I am creative and funny. I want to spend time with my forever family baking, cooking, riding bicycles, and hiking.
