We are excited to introduce Joey! Joey was born in 2020 and is 2.5 years old.
Joey's favorite activities include finger painting, playing with toy cars, and swaying to the beat of his favorite music! When his caregivers take him to the local playground, he enjoys playing on the swings.
Joey has global developmental delays and displays characteristics of autism spectrum disorder. He also has G6PD and mild anemia. Joey attends an early intervention program at a local Developmental Center where he receives occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech therapy. One of his favorite activities is playing the 'imitation game' with his therapist. Joey imitates his therapist when they clap their hands, and he pats his head to indicate he wants his therapist to imitate him!
Joey currently lives in a children's home, and his caregivers say he smiles often. He usually prefers to play by himself, although engages with his peers when encouraged by his caregivers.
If you think you could be the right family for Joey, please contact us at Superkids@gladney.org to review his profile.
