Your gifts are in direct support of the programs and efforts of the Gladney Center for Adoption. The Center's mission, Creating Bright Futures Around the World, includes services to adoptive children, birth parents, and adopted persons around the world.

Residence Hall
Birthmothers from around the nation journey to Gladney to receive encouragement, education, health care, and life skills training, all within a very caring environment. The beauty and comfort of the residence they enjoy, along with the friendships made and nurtured, change lives as they walk through a very difficult decision process.   View campus residence hall photos.

Counseling
From adoptive parents to birthmothers, the Gladney staff of professionals share their hearts and knowledge to make sure that questions do not go unanswered and help is always available.

Post Adoption Services
A unique element of Gladney service ties to the lifetime of services offered to birthmothers, adoptive families, and adoptees through the Post Adoption Department. Service providers for many kinds of needs are identified and involved when appropriate.

Families Created
The most wonderful part of the Gladney experience is to see the joy and love that is so evident as a child is placed in the arms of a loving family. These memories serve as reminders of the purpose and mission the Gladney family has encouraged for 117 years. Read Gladney adoptive parents Monica & Drey's story and journal.

Birthmothers Helped
Through the many services offered, our birthmothers in residence, as well as those who choose to live in their own communities, receive an unmatched level of care. Health care, education, training and, most importantly, friendship and counseling serve to make the Gladney experience memorable and life-growing. Read the diaries of Gladney birthmothers.

Humanitarian Aid
Gladney and Gladney families are very proud of our humanitarian aid projects. We believe humanitarian aid projects illustrate the philosophies, care and concern of an organization, its adoptive families and staff. Gladney and Gladney families feel a strong sense of responsibility to the children that will never be adopted and want, in some small way, to make their lives better. In keeping with our mission as a social service agency we have developed these humanitarian aid programs. More information about Gladney's current humanitarian aid efforts.
