RICHMOND, Va. — Krystal, 12, is very inquisitive and fun! She enjoys doing hands-on activities and also enjoys singing and listening to music. Krystal takes pride in her appearance and is a budding “fashionista;” therefore, she enjoys spending time at the mall. Krystal is polite and responds positively to re-direction. Krystal‘s determined and persistent nature necessitates a day that is planned with structure. Krystal has stated, “Structure helps me feel safe and secure! “

Krystal is ready to be a member of a family with experienced adoptive parents who have realistic expectations, patience and a home environment with predictable routines and schedules. Maintaining connections with her three siblings is very important to Krystal.

In Virginia, we have over 860 children who are ready for foster to adoption. In other words, these children are ready to find their permanent and loving forever families. As Connecting Hearts -The Deborah J Johnston Foundation celebrates National Adoption Month, our “30 Kids in 30 Days” initiative is to bring awareness to 30 kids who are available for forever homes, but also to shed light on the other 830 children who may not be seen. Our kids are all ages and races, they were put in foster care due to no fault of their own.
