Heily May is a Kid That Will Bring Fun to Your Life

Heily May is a bright and engaging young girl of Hispanic descent. Heily is very creative and able to express herself well. She likes being creative, doing arts/crafts, dying her hair with hair paint, baking and listening to music. Heily also enjoys being out in her community. She also loves animals and is very caring towards them. She is a personable child who cares deeply about the people in her life. She is able to build strong connections with both the peers and adults in her life. Heily does well in school and enjoys being in the classroom setting. 

Heily is the fourth grade and receives extra supports at school. 

Legally freed for adoption, Heily will do best with a local family who can keep her in contact with her siblings and those she is close with. Heily will thrive in a two parent family or in an experienced 1 parent household that is structured, energetic, and can give her the attention and support that she needs. A family with either much older children or no other children in the home would be best for Heily. She may also benefit from having a visiting resource. 

Who Can Adopt

If you’re at least 18, have a stable source of income and have room in your heart, you may be a perfect match to adopt a waiting child. Adoptive parents can be single, married or partnered; experienced or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ+ singles and couples. As an adoptive parent, you won’t have to pay any fees. Adoption from foster care is completely free in Massachusetts.

The process to adopt a child from foster care includes training, interviews and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you. These steps will help match you with a child or sibling group that will be a good fit.

To learn more about adoption from foster care, call the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange (MARE) at (617) 964-6273 or visit www.mareinc.org. Start the process today and give a waiting child a permanent place to call home.
