Opportunity to Share Your Story

Do you know of families in Arkansas, Texas, Connecticut, Georgia, New Jersey, Rhode Island or North Dakota who could
participate in this great project?

We would like to promote families who have identified a child whom they adopted on adoptuskids.org or adopte1.org See details below.

Voice for Adoption is actively seeking participation for this year’s 2009 Adoptive Family Portrait Project. We are looking for families who have adopted youth from foster care. In this year’s project entitled Many Faces, Many Families, we will highlight the unique stories of families who have chosen to provide permanency to children through adoption. We will work with policy makers to make sure they hear the stories and needs of these precious families. We need your help! If you are a family who has adopted from foster care and would like to participate, contact me for contact info.

I'm in North Dakota and have adopted from foster care and we're in process again. However, our son wasn't identified on AUSK. Would we qualify? I'd totally love to help out if we do.

I'm in the same boat as Angela. We are in Rhode Island and have three boys adopted from foster care. None of them were identified through those resources though. We would like to help if we can.
