Why Adoption?

We are young professionals who, having established ourselves professionally, are ready to welcome a child into our family. With our home and careers being stable, it became clear to us that we have enough energy, love, and resources to share with a child to help them feel safe, loved, and thrive where they are. As a gay couple there are several avenues for creating a family, for us adoption felt like the best way for us to grow our family in a just and equitable manner.
