Carter’s Story

My name is Carter. I’m 9 years old. My mom adopted me through foster care in Virginia. We are a transracial family.

At C.A.S.E., [my therapist] helps me understand adoption. She also helps me deal with behavior problems. I’m learning to express my feelings out loud. Sometimes [my therapist] helps me with my worries.

My favorite part of C.A.S.E. is the countries at the conference. I also like the Carnival at the conference.

P.S. I like grilled cheese.
