Children - Looking for a Forever Family

 Eduardo

Eduardo has eyes that will captivate you. This 15-year-old handsome Latino young man has a lot of love to add to your family. Although he cannot express himself verbally, he can make his needs known by gestures and pointing. “Barney” is Eduardo’s best friend. This purple pal helps comfort him and keep him company. He loves to go to the park and play with other children. 

He enjoys food and his absolute favorite is French Fries. He is usually quiet and keeps to himself but his pleasant demeanor makes others feel comfortable around him. Eduardo attends a special educational school and is doing well at his level. Eduardo is diagnosed with Severe Mental Retardation, Autism and Seizure Disorder. His seizures are under control at this time. He requires assistance with self-help skills and is receiving services from Regional Center. Eduardo is waiting for a forever family to call his own. Could this be your family?

If you are interested in adopting Eduardo, please contact the Department of Children and Family services at (626) 229-3790.
