Josh (Joshua) VA01323620

“My goals are to get adopted and have a good family.”

“If someone were the definition of resilience, it would be Joshua,” says his social worker. Joshua is a remarkable young man with an incredible ability to persevere through challenges. No matter what obstacles come his way, he continues to get back up, move forward, and pursue his goals with determination and optimism.

Joshua shares a strong and meaningful bond with his siblings and values those important relationships. Whether he is exploring a new interest, developing a skill, or working toward a personal goal, Joshua approaches life with enthusiasm and a desire to grow. He is highly motivated and goal-oriented, and once he sets his mind to accomplishing something, he puts his whole heart into achieving it.

An active and adventurous youth, Joshua enjoys spending time outdoors. He loves skateboarding, wrestling, and trying new activities. One of Joshua’s greatest strengths is his willingness to step outside of his comfort zone and embrace new experiences. He is genuine, authentic, and unapologetically himself—a quality that makes him truly special.

Joshua is looking for a two parent household and a family who will encourage his ambitions, celebrate his successes, and stand beside him through life’s challenges. He does enjoy having other kids around and he thrives on structure.  Could you be the family who helps Joshua continue building the bright future he deserves and shows him what it truly means to belong?
