Post-Adoption Services for Families
Thanks to a donation from the Loonin Family Fund, beginning in 2010 we are happy to offer post adoption programs and services that will answer questions, offer solutions, and help families connect with each other and find common ground. These new programs, which honor and strengthen the family, are part of our Post Adoption Services Department and are available to all adoptive families.
