Idaho Wednesday's Child/SNAPS profile for Nicholas

If you have completed an adoption homestudy and would like to have your information forwarded to this child's worker, contact us.

Legally free, NICHOLAS (01/93) is an attractive, Hispanic/ Latino teen who wants to tell you a bit about himself.

“Hello, my name is Nicholas, and I am 14 years old. I am athletic and love sports and video games. I like hanging out with brothers close to my age. I am also good at being an older brother. I would like a family who has fun on the weekends and who encourage me to be active in sports. I want to test video games and see if other kids would like them. I am an expert video game player."

Nick's caseworker describes him as an "active and caring young man who needs a family to count on and who will count on him." This young man has experienced loss and disappointments over the years, but he continues to engage and become attached to caring adults. Nick very much wants to belong to a family.

Recently, this young man was diagnosed with a seizure activity that was causing him to not get enough sleep. Since this diagnosis, he was placed on anti-seizure medication, and this has caused great changes in his ability to appropriately manage stressful situations. Nick has made great strides in learning coping skills, good sportsmanship, and working on his behavioral challenges while living in a treatment facility.

Nick's adoption team is looking for a sophisticated family who is willing to continue accessing community resources, including medication management and counseling. Providing contact with important people in Nick's life will help to maintain continuity for this charming teenager. If you are an astute family who wants to help guide this young man into adulthood and provide him with unconditional love and stability, then he will provide bottomless amounts of joy.

Subsidy and Purchase of Service may be available.
