JJ's Story from 11 Year-Old Provider to Foster Care and Adoption

JJ and his siblings were neglected as children and left without food, water, or proper clothing. At age 11, JJ worked to provide food and clothing. He tells the story of their hardship and heartache from a home of neglect to the fear and trauma of being removed from the life they knew when his school contacted the Department of Social Services (DSS). JJ and his siblings were moved six times within six months. He and his adoptive mom wrap up the story as she describes her calling to this foster-to-adoption journey, including one with older kids.
