Orphan alert- 10 year old girl


Victoria
This little girl, whose name is Victoria, is ten years old and was adopted from Russia at the age of eight.

She has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. Victoria excels academically but struggles

with peers and social settings. Her original adoptive family and her therapist have been working with her

to decrease behaviors related to institutionalization—i.e., lying, stealing, poor problem-solving, etc.

Victoria's placing agency, Kentucky Adoption Services, feels she would do best in a home where she is

the youngest child. KAS is seeking an older and experienced couple who are willing to devote the necessary

time and guidance to helping Victoria grow into a successful adult. We are attaching a picture of Victoria.

If you would like more information, please send an e-mail to victoria-info@theshepherdscrook.org.
