Jean Michel is known by the nickname Ti Blanc. Junior was born in Gonaive and lived for several years in Cap-Haitien with his father. His mother was never a part of his life. When Junior was a young boy his father died, leaving him alone with no one to care for him. This led Junior to spend a lot of time living on the streets. He was eventually befriended by an American man who took him in before bringing Junior to the St. Joseph Family. Junior is very happy to now have a home and family with the St. Joseph Family. He loves learning and going to school, where he is an excellent student. Junior has embraced the art classes offered at the St. Joseph’s Arts Center is constantly working on his paintings and taking classes to improve his artistic eye. Junior also takes dance class at St. Joseph’s and looks forward to improving his dancing skills.
