Why do you love working with hopeful adoptive families?
We love working with hopeful adoptive families because of the relationship that we get to build with them, subsequently supporting them in what initially feels like a pretty overwhelming and scary process turn into an 'ok, we got this' emotion for them.
Families are often not aware of how what they have been through in life actually leads them to be quite ready for such a vulnerable and sometimes challenging process and experience. Hopefully the best part of a home study for families, once the tedious paperwork parts are out of the way, is the family realizing that they are supported in their dream of growing their family. We always hope they feel some joy in sharing about who they are and how they got to this point. Because some heartache can be one of the things that leads a family to an adoption path, we love when we get to see the matches happen and the family feel a sense of trust and realization that adoption ended up being the perfect way to grow their family.
