Advocates for Children

Josh has been in foster care for close to 5 years. He is a very sweet child but has serious behavioral issues and has not been successful outside of residential facilities, but he is working to have success with his grandmother at the moment. Josh has 5 brothers and sisters, and unfortunately their paths have gone different ways and he will likely never get to live with any of them. He is a very sweet child but understandably struggles to understand the hand of cards that has been dealt to him. Josh loves Legos and shows his worker a new set he would like at every visit. Josh is very much at peace when he is building with Legos.

Josh has completed one set of equine therapy sessions and would very much like to continue by enrolling in a second set of sessions. His human therapist reports that the horses have helped Josh quite a bit in understanding his actions and processing his thoughts. Also, he just plain loves to play with the horses!
