By
Creating parent profiles is one of the best parts of my job because I love learning about the families! Check out some of our awesome families online profiles!




Meghan and Matt
" Thank you for taking the time to read a little about us. We hope it gives you a glimpse of our life and who we are and will allow you to see all the love that we have to give a child. We believe there isn't just one way build a family. We know raising a happy family is the most important thing we will ever do. To us, being parents is a special gift that comes with tremendous responsibility."




Mike and Amy
"Hi! We are Mike and Amy, and we are honored that you are taking the time to get to know a little about us. We know we can’t fully relate to what you are going through, but we admire the courage, love and thoughtfulness you are putting into your decision. Please know that we are praying for wisdom and peace for you at this time. We hope this profile gives you a glimpse into who we are. Thanks for looking."





"Our Names are Steve and Gwen. We are very excited that you are taking the time to learn more about us as you develop your adoption plan. While we cannot imagine how hard this decision has been for you, please know that we admire your strength and love. Your child will grow up knowing of your strength and love by the life you have chosen for them in a nurturing house full of love, laughter, respect, and possibilities. We would love nothing more than the opportunity to welcome your child into our home."


"Hello, we are Jeff and Melissa. We feel so blessed that you are reading our profile. We hope through these words and pictures you discover a little more about our love, marriage and strong desire to become parents again through adoption. We know this must be a very trying time, but you are a strong and courageous individual to choose adoption. We believe our paths have crossed for a very special reason."






"Thank you for your interest in getting to know us. We are so excited and proud to be adopting for the second time. Our daughter Jenny joined our family through the miracle of adoption and we are so grateful for her birthparents -- and to you -- for being so selfless and loving in making an adoption plan."

It's not Business, It's Personal

By
Well, it is the beginning of my second full week here at Gladney as an intern, and it has been wonderful! I think that my favorite part about being here, besides the free cake that randomly shows up in the break room, is the people that are here. I have felt continually supported by each person I come in contact with. Each time I ask a question, or look lost, I am anwered with a smiling face and a helpful attitude! So, thank you Gladney staff! :) As I am typing this, I am overhearing a conversation with a caseworker and one of their clients, and the caseworker is getting to tell the family that they will be able to travel to visit a child in the next month! On the phone the mother started crying at the thought of, possibly , seeing their new baby in a month...and then I started crying as I recognized how special and personal this work is. What is done here touches lives, not only the families lives, but the staff's (and intern's) as well! That family will be changed from today ...

Gladney's ABC program

By
Today I spent most of my time researching how Gladney can improve the web presence of their ABC program. Gladney's ABC program helps place African American and biracial babies with families. In researcing this topic, I learned that there are far more biracial and African American babies who need homes than caucasion ones. Therefore, I think it is important that Gladney do increase the web presence of their ABC program to bring awareness to the availability and need of biracial and African American babies to be adopted. Here's Gladney's ABC page on their website: http://http//www.adoptionsbygladney.com/html/abc/index.php Overall, I thought it would be a great idea for Gladney to provide links for biracial and African American moms to search for prospective parents who want to adopt from the ABC program so that they could more easily find a match and good family for their baby. Hopefully, making the ABC program more accessible will influence prospective adoptive parent...

My Dream Come True!

By
Have you ever had a moment that you thought was insignificant, but it ended up shaping your life and career in a way you never anticipated? That’s how this dream all started! I was thirteen years old, and a group of children from a Russian orphanage traveled to the United States for a summer camp. These precious children were hosted by families interested in adopting them, loving them and giving them a bright future! Many families adopted, and during that time, I witnessed some of the most authentic, selfless sacrifices and love I could ever imagine. My heart broke that day for the fatherless.   Fast forward a few years… okay maybe more like ten, I began passionately pursuing a career in Social Work, knowing my emphasis was going toward children and families. Though I knew there was a need for social workers in CPS, I dreamed of being in an adoption agency. In 2014, my parents were empty nesters and felt called to foster. We were placed with a sweet eight month old boy, who ne...
