November was a busy month. We have several highlights for the month of November. We also can’t believe we are nearing the end of 2022. Before you know it, we will welcome snow and the holiday season. 😊
We recognized National Adoption Month in November. National Adoption Month is an initiative that seeks to increase national awareness of adoption issues and brings attention to the need for adoptive families for teens in the US foster care system. This year’s National Adoption Month theme was “Small Steps Open Doors.” Pursuing permanency for teens can be challenging, but small steps along the way can make all the difference. Adoption Circle recognizes the need for adoptive families in the foster care system. One resource to learn more about foster care adoption can be found at the following link www.childwelfare.gov. Also, throughout the month of November, Adoption Circle had several posts in recognition of National Adoption Month. We are honored to be able to work with such great moms, families and professionals.
We also celebrated Thanksgiving. We are always very thankful for our Adoption Circle family and Friends.
November 29th was Giving Tuesday. Thank you to all who donated. All of our donations received go to our birthparent fund to help families in need throughout the year. If you would like to donate you can do so at the following link https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=S6MAGKFVAB7AY

Kim is still interested in starting a virtual book club for adoption related books. If anybody is interested please email Kim directly at kim@adoptioncircle.org to get more details.
We are looking forward to December and the holidays. If you don’t follow us on our social media accounts (FaceBook, Instagram, Twitter), please do so. We post several times throughout the month! 😊
