  • Hope in Adoption: The Many Faces of Hope

    Hope in Adoption: The Many Faces of Hope
    2025/12/08
    In this first episode of our December “Hope in Adoption” series, Heather and Kim explore how hope shows up in adoption from every perspective—often quietly, sometimes unexpectedly, but always powerfully. They look beyond the usual ideas of hope and talk honestly about how it appears for: Women considering adoption: the hope for stability, safety, and being understood Waiting adoptive families: the hope that grows through persistence, preparation, and small moments of encouragement Birth fathers: the often unseen hopes they carry for their child and their role Everyone after placement: the hope found in connection, openness, and relationships that grow over time Heather and Kim also share where they see hope every day in their work—from hotline calls to updates between families to the way people show up for one another during big decisions. This episode sets the tone for the whole month: Hope is real, present, and uniquely expressed throughout the adoption journey. It doesn’t look the same for everyone, and it doesn’t require everything to be perfect. Hope is steady. Hope is human. And hope is woven into every adoption story. Join us as we begin this thoughtful, encouraging series.
