Jai Breonna from Texas

Jai'Breonna, who prefers to go by Bre, is a vibrant and talkative teen. She has a heart full of love and a personality that shines. She's the kind of girl others naturally gravitate toward--trustworthy, compassionate, and full of life. Bre is often seen as a "big sister" figure by her peers, someone who listens, protects, and stands up for others. She leads by example and is a positive role model wherever she goes. Bre has a deep passion for beauty and creativity. She is able to express her creative streak through painting. She enjoys doing her own hair and loves styling others' as well. Her dream is to go to school for cosmetology and become a professional hairstylist. Bre also enjoys getting her nails done and shopping. Active and fun-loving, Bre enjoys dancing, bowling, skating, and spending summer days at the water park. She likes to practice cheer routines and cheerleading is a passion of hers. She's excited to run track and play basketball. She would like to attend a camp where she can spend time with horses--animals she absolutely adores. Bre excels in science and robotics class and is eager to keep learning. Her involvement in church is an important part of her life and provides her with a sense of community and connection. With her kind heart, strong voice, and energetic spirit, Bre is ready for her forever family.

Bre would benefit from a forever family that will allow her to be involved in sports, extracurricular activities at school and church. Bre would love to find a family that supports her dreams to go to college. She hopes to join a family that will provide stability, guidance, and unconditional support as she grows into a confident and successful young adult. It is recommended that the adoptive family be familiar with parenting recommendations from professionals such as Bryan Post (www.postinstitute.com); Karyn Purvis and David Cross (The Connected Child, http://www.child.tcu.edu/index.htm); Heather T. Forbes and Bryan Post (Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control, www.beyondconsequences.com), who all offer innovative interventions for working with children.
