Adopt a New Mexico Youth

Welcome to the new home of the Heart Gallery of New Mexico. Many children become available for adoption each year in New Mexico. In some cases, foster children may eventually be eligible for adoption. As an adoptive parent you are able to provide a child with a permanent, loving, stable family and the security of a forever family.

This Month's Featured Child

Name  Josiah
Age  8
Gender  Male
Story  Josiah is an active and energetic child that spends most of his leisure time outdoors. He enjoys riding his bike and jumping around on the trampoline. When not outside you can find Josiah curled up with a favorite book. He enjoys reading and is currently challenging himself by reading beyond his second grade level. Academically Josiah has done well and recently received a top Accelerated Reader award. Josiah enjoys going to school and has maintained good grades. With incentive, Josiah strives to be well organized and completes his chores in a successful and timely manner. This young man is well mannered and thrives from positive affirmations. Josiah also flourishes when he recognizes that someone has genuinely taken an interest in his life. A good family makeup for Josiah would be a family that is willing to give him a chance in life and accept him for where he is at, at this point in time. Josiah needs a family that is open and compassionate about accepting his loyalty to his birth family. He would benefit from individualized attention and being an only child. He would also do well in a home with teen siblings who could role model appropriate social skills and serve as positive mentors. Josiah would like to have some form of contact with his younger sibling. Heart Gallery photos by Katelyn Bird View larger photos: Photo 1 | Photo 2
