Thirteen-year-old Jaheim describes himself as "fun, athletic and nice." Jaheim enjoys playing basketball and football, running track, playing with dogs, playing video games and playing on his iPhone. Jaheim is in junior high, and his favorite subjects are math and gym. He has dreams of being in the NBA when he grows up. Jaheim would prefer to be parented by a mom and a dad. He is open to having siblings and would love to have a dog.

After adoption, Jaheim will need to maintain contact with his birth siblings, all of whom are in the Twin Cities area.
