A word from our founder:
As a social worker who helped women with unexpected pregnancies, I saw that adoptions needed more heart and connection! I created Adoption & Beyond to create genuine connections between birth and adoptive families. Then life threw me the most beautiful plot twist – I became an adoptive mom myself! Talk about on-the-job training!
For over 30 years, I’ve guided families through adoption with transparency, education, and ongoing support long after the “welcome home” balloons are gone. Feeling uncertain? I’m here to walk beside you on this amazing family-building journey.
