In ideal scenarios, every child removed from his or her home is able to be reunified with their biological parent or parents in a safe, stable environment. As the famous quote says, “There is no place like home,” but unfortunately due to a variety of factors and circumstances, it is not always ideal for a child to be reunified with his or her biological family.
When that is the case, we are strong advocates of adoption. Adoption provides a child who has endured trauma and unconditional love of a family.
At One More Child, our goal is to connect families who desire to expand safety of vulnerable children.
