The journey of growing one’s family through domestic infant adoption can sometimes be a long process filled with periods of uncertainty and longing. This forum seeks to bring together our “waiting” Open Arms’ families, who are all often experiencing similar feelings while they wait to be chosen by a potential birthparent. Participants and staff will discuss and share common emotions often felt by those hoping to become a family through adoption and participants will hopefully emerge with new insight and strength to help them through this challenging time.
