November is National Adoption Month! This is a great opportunity not only to learn more about adoption from foster care, but also to seek out the voices of those who’ve been in foster care and learn more about their experiences. Our website at casey.org is one resource. Others are organizations like Child Welfare Information Gateway, @Adopt.US.Kids , and @DTFA .
