K’Lonie is a sweet young girl who is social and engaging. She enjoys getting her nails done and watching videos. She likes listening to music and humming along and loves interacting with her teachers and peers.

K’Lonie currently attends a residential school where she participates in lessons and activities but requires supervision throughout her day. She has shown immense potential for learning new skills.

K’Lonie will thrive with an energetic and committed two-parent family that has natural supports in place. A family will also need to be strong educational advocates and comfortable accessing community services. The ideal family for K’Lonie will help her maintain contact with members of her birth family and support their relationships.
