Chloe and Aerial: Nonverbal Sisters in Foster Care Seeking a Forever Home

Chloe and Aerial: A Powerful Bond

• 💖 Chloe, 12, and Aerial, 13, are nonverbal sisters in foster care who communicate through their powerful presence and joy.
• 🗣️ While they don't use spoken words, they express themselves through two learned signs (Chloe: "warm," "please") and by using icons on a board to convey emotions and needs.

Background and Development

• 🏡 Both sisters are on the autism spectrum and have experienced neglect and drug use in their previous home.
• ⏳ They have been in foster care for nearly two years, showing significant progress in their independence, such as dressing themselves and clearing their plates.
• ⚡ Chloe is described as energetic and loves to shake objects, while Aerial finds comfort in rocking when overstimulated.

Seeking a Forever Family

• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Case worker Julie Bishop emphasizes that the girls would thrive with a routine schedule to help reduce anxiety.
• 🧩 A family with some experience with autism would be beneficial, but an active family that can keep them engaged is most important.
• ❤️ The most crucial need for Chloe and Aerial is a forever family willing to love them unconditionally.
