I made this video to show people that foster care adoption is a wonderful option for people wishing to expand their family. International Adoptions and domestic newborn Adoptions are very popular and I believe EVERY child regardless of where they were born or how old they are…deserve a family. But with that said, so many people can’t believe how many children are in their own neighborhoods that will never know what it’s like to have a “Forever Family”. Foster care adoption was the BEST option for out family…maybe it will be for yours too.
