Jeremiah from Pennsylvania

Meet Jeremiah: a sociable, respectful, and funny young man. Those who know him well describe him as hard-working and reliable and note that he thrives best in a loving environment with positive role models. Like many teenagers, he can be either shy or outgoing depending on his mood; but even if he comes off as a little quiet around new people, once he warms up to them, his humor and his personality shine through! He loves sports, his favorites being football and baseball. If you're a family that loves Philly teams, Jeremiah will fit right in with you ? he loves the Eagles and the Phillies! Like any typical boy his age, he enjoys playing video games, watching movies, and listening to music, but he also enjoys playing pool, board games, card games, and spending time outside. He's described as an average student academically. He likes animals and is open to a home with all kinds of pets ? except spiders! Having the opportunity to maintain a relationship with former foster families, even after finding his forever home, is important to Jeremiah. He currently maintains irregular phone contact with his birth family, and he would love for his forever family to be supportive of these connections, too. Parental rights have not been terminated for Jeremiah.
