Galen is a lively and active boy. He lives with a supportive foster family and expresses affection through warm hugs and enthusiastic applause. As a family, they enjoy spending time together on walks to the river, watching movies, and swimming. Galen is especially drawn to bright, colorful toys with auditory features. When he hears music from his favorite genre, he joyfully waves his arms and taps his feet to the rhythm. Galen currently receives physical and occupational therapy services in the home. Galen communicates using nonverbal cues to express himself and indicate his wants and needs. Although he may be shy when first meeting new people, he builds meaningful connections through play, games, and shared toys. Contact Gladney for more information about Galen!

The listing agency has an additional $1000 grant to reduce the adoption fees for Galen, too!
