Jonathan has a boyish complexion and dark eyes that flash between confidence and uncertainty. Just 23 years old, he is now the primary caregiver for his three younger siblings. Having responsibility for his siblings weighs heavily on Jonathan, but he is not alone in his journey.

The day before Methodist Children’s Home became Malcolm’s new home, he had a sleepless night, worried he might miss his admissions appointment the next morning. Accountability and punctuality were values his military father instilled in him at an early age and would be what he relied on as he navigated the path that led him to MCH.
