To kick off National Adoption month, Adoptions From The Heart will be hosting our third Heart-to-Heart virtual event of the year, which will be taking place November 2, 2023, from 7pm-8:30pm EST! Our Heart-to-Heart events were created to share the voices of the members of our AFTH community. These events allow those in attendance to hear unique and different perspectives of those who have experience with the adoption process. It also gives waiting families some insight on what families have experienced post-placement. The Heart-to-Heart events also help raise money for our programs and services that are offered to expecting parents, birth parents, and adoptees. We plan to raise money through donations and a 50/50 raffle. If you are interested in donating to our programs and services, please donate here! 

Our upcoming Heart-to-Heart will center around The Adoption Triad. We will be featuring a complete triad, one of which will include a birth mother, adoptive mother, and adoptee. This triad will share their experience with the adoption process, the highs and lows along the way, and how they got to where they are today. This triad is unique in that they have a very positive story and strong relationships with one another, which we know is not always the case. While this story is positive, the triad definitely had bumps along the way and put in a lot of work to achieve the relationships they have today. The goal of this conversation will be to show the positives that can come from an open adoption, but also acknowledging that positive relationships with both a birth parent, adoptive parent, and adoptee can be a challenging thing to achieve. This event will make for a compelling conversation that you are not going to want to miss! If you are interested in attending this event, please register here!
