Rogelio, 9
Rogelio is a young music enthusiast with a strong taste and a love for the outdoors. Whether playing basketball, creating TikTok videos indoors, or savoring his favorite food, tacos de al pastor, Rogelio enjoys a variety of activities. Describing himself as playful, helpful, and caring, he values making people laugh and has a penchant for jokes.
Residing in South San Francisco with his mom and 5-year-old sibling, Rogelio occasionally visits his dad but spends most days with his mom. His older brother lives with grandparents in Redwood City. Despite his apparent shyness, Rogelio is a funny individual who seeks a mentor with shared interests in basketball, humor, and trustworthiness.
Having experienced traumatic events, including domestic violence and the recent separation of his parents, Rogelio grapples with trust issues with adults. Rogelio could greatly benefit from a mentor during these challenging times. A mentor can provide support, help establish a trustworthy relationship, and offer guidance as Rogelio navigates through his past experiences and builds connections with those around him.
