Editor's Note: Window on the Clearwater has joined the Wednesday's Child network to help spread the word about children that are waiting for families to give them the loving care that they need. Each Wednesday we will profile a different child. For more information about Wednesday's Child and how you can be involved check the web site at: http://www.icwrtc.org/wednesdays-child-1. Austin Age: 12 Meet Austin, one amazing 12-year-old! Austin's permanency team is searching for a caring and very committed single dad or two parent family to make Austin's wish for a Forever Home come true. Austin would thrive in a family with a Dad who is truly hands on, one who will spend time with him participating in outdoor activities like swimming and camping. An ideal fit for Austin is a home where he would be the only child or the youngest in the family. Austin's team describes him as kind, caring and resilient. This bright, curious boy would like a Christian family who lives in the country, if possible. Austin is great with animals, loves riding horses and truly thrives in settings where he's provided with routine and structure that he can count on. A great fit for Austin would include parents who can provide him with consistency and choices and who have an understanding of the effects of childhood trauma, or are willing to work to gain that important knowledge. If you have the qualities Austin's team is searching for and you believe Austin may be a good fit for your family, please inquire about Austin today at http://idahowednesdayschild.org/.
