Aliston came to the St. Joseph Family as a student at Lekòl Sen Trinite. At that time he lived with his mother in Jacmel and attended Lekòl Sen Trinite. He has five brothers and two sisters. His father abandoned him when he was very young.
In the spring of 2007 Aliston’s mother died and he went to live with an aunt, but she did not treat him well. There was no one else who could take care of him, so the leadership at Trinity House invited him to live there and to become a member of the St. Joseph Family. During the summer of 2007 he moved to St. Joseph’s Home for Boys.
Aliston is active in the St. Joseph’s Boy Scout troop. He is emerging as one of the young leaders of the house. He is a quiet but friendly young man. Aliston also loves to sing and often sings solos at the Sunday worship service at St. Joseph’s.
