Meet Maria! Maria is a sweet and intelligent young woman who has been through a lot and needs a family who will be supportive of her growth. She loves animals and helping younger kids. She would make a great big sister! Here is a little bit of what she has to say (Note: animals are not required but would be a big plus for this compassionate young lady):

“Hello, my name is Maria. My favorite hobbies are puzzles, coloring, and arts and crafts of all sorts. I am looking for a family with animals. I need parents who really care and will take good care of me. I would also like to be a sibling to younger children in the home. School is ok, but I would prefer a non-traditional setting. My favorite colors are red, blue, and black.  My favorite movies are King Kong, 47 Meters Down, and The Wizard of Oz. I dream about having a good future.”
