A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
Imagine being in Nathan and Amber's shoes. Facing the challenges of an adoptive family, trying their best to stand strong for Jayden and Brooklyn. Both children, diagnosed with ADHD and ODD, demand a unique set of skills, understanding, and patience. Think of the weight they feel — creating individualized education plans, ensuring professional support, and navigating through the valuable resources that our NCHS Families Forever program offers. Even with all this, sometimes the burden and isolation can feel overwhelming.
Now, envision you lighting their path.
Because of you, they were introduced to the NCHS Families2Families mentoring program. Your contribution bridged them with Emily, a beacon in their stormy journey. Emily, herself an adoptive parent and peer mentor, knew the hurdles they faced. When they needed reassurance, Emily, backed by your support, was their anchor. When confusion arose, your generosity ensured Emily's guidance was just a phone call away.
Every time Nathan and Amber felt they might stumble under the weight of meetings, appointments, and the emotional turbulence of parenting, the perspective and empathy Emily brought, powered by your contribution, made the difference. Together, under Emily's guidance and the resources made available by you, they deciphered the hidden needs behind Jayden and Brooklyn's behaviors. They transformed challenges into moments of understanding and grace.
Adoption is but the first step in a marathon of love, understanding, and growth. Your invaluable generosity ensures that every Nathan, Amber, Jayden, and Brooklyn out there never walk alone.
Because of you, Nathan and Amber are not on this journey alone.
