(WXYZ) — Our Grant Me Hope child this week is 14-year-old Jaheim, who loves sports, reading and watching movies.

According to the Michigan Adoption Resource Exchange, if he had three wishes, he’d wish for wealth, happiness and most of all, a family.

MARE said that Jaheim is most proud of his progress — and that he wants to become a lawyer, surgeon, detective, engineer or work in IT one day.

“Jaheim is an outgoing young man who values connection and relationships. Jaheim is very resilient. He has a big heart and carries a lot of emotions. He has a contagious laugh and a smile that can make anyone feel better,” one of the adults close to him told MARE.

Jaheim would do best with two parents who are experienced and trauma-informed. He would do best in a stable and structured home environment and as the only child. His forever family must advocate for the services that will help him excel and support communication with his sister.
