In school Randy's is on an Individual Education Plan (IEP) for his special needs. He is currently on grade level and attends school in the community. Randy has developed an ability to make and maintain friendships with his peers and form appropriate relationships with the adults in his life.

Randy has been steadfast that he would like a forever family that has his same ethnic background and who are "brown like" him with a sister and a younger brother. He would benefit from a two-parent household who would be open to a slow transition process with consistent communication with his current residential placement. He is of Haitian/African American descent and interested families must be dedicated to providing him the appropriate information and ethnic and cultural role models with respect to his culture, this includes discussing racism and discrimination. Interested families should have an understanding of Randy's special needs and be trauma informed.
