Meet Our Waiting Children & Youth
Primary tabs
Welcome and thank you for caring about children and youth in foster care! The following children are currently waiting for a foster-adoptive family or a foster family who is in the position to adopt, should the case move in that direction. Both home studied and non-home studied families may inquire.
Sage, age 13
Sage is a bright and loving kiddo. They have been through a lot in their short life but is extremely resilient. They love music, socializing, animals, and is a wonderful singer. Sage would like to be the only child in a home, but would do okay with a few older children. Sage would prefer to stay in Larimer County, near their siblings who they would like consistent contact. For the right fit, Sage is willing to look at different states as long as a plan can be made for them to have good communication/visitation with their siblings. It's very important for Sage that any families inquiring about her know that they are an LGBTQ+ ally.
Storm, age 16
Storm is a 16-year old that is very charismatic and funny. They are creative and love art--especially drawing. They have a harder time when not active and love to exercise. They are high energy and very caring which is displayed through their love for animals and adventure. They love dogs and would like to own one or be in a home with one.
They need a lot of individual attention. When they are bored or feel overlooked, they become dysregulated. Storm would prefer a same-sex (female) couple with no other children in the home. A potential family must be LGTBQ affirming.
Karter, age 17
Karter is searching for their forever home! They are a 17-year-old transgender youth who identifies as he/him. Karter loves music and when a song comes on the radio, he can name the song title and artist before anyone else in the room. Intelligent and humorous, he loves to read and write stories, draw, listen to music, and be active outdoors. Karter also enjoys a good video game. Many of Karter's struggles are consistent with complex trauma. His future success will be supported best by recognizing his strengths as well as providing a consistent, safe, and structured environment for him.
**Karter will soon be turning 18 and we would love to have support for him as he enters this next phase of life. Would you be interested in being a host home, mentor, or support for him now and into the future? If so, click "Ask about this child" below**
