As November is National Adoption Month, we here at the Herald Post have partnered with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to help raise the profile for kids in foster care whose permanency goal is adoption.
This is the eighth in a series of stories profiling a child looking for their Forever Family. To see the previous children, click here.
Meet Eean:
Eean is an adventurous boy who loves reading books, watching Japanese anime series and drawing comics in his sketch book. His favorite anime is Inuyasha!
Discovering history is a passion for Eean. He enjoys learning about the past and is very knowledgeable on many important historical events. He loves technology and is fascinated with anything that deals with computers.
Eean is an extremely thoughtful child, looking for a forever family to love him and help him thrive. He says he’d be open to living outside of Texas.
