His favorite meals include pizza and Mexican food, and he enjoys listening to Latin music. Academics are important to Dennis, and he's proud to earn good grades in school. With dreams of having a phone, AirPods, and an Xbox, Dennis is ready to bring his fun-loving energy to a supportive family.

Dennis' forever family will provide him with a great deal of patience, consistency, structure and supervision. Ideally, he would have a two-parent family, with a strong support system. His family will be knowledgeable/have experience or be willing to learn about working with children who have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Dennis' ideal family will be committed to maintaining sibling contact with an older brother. The older brother is not a part of this adoption, but the ideal family would ensure sibling contact is a priority in order to maintain and strengthen the sibling bond. His forever family will be open to maintaining sibling contact with the possibility of having the older brother join the family in the future.
