Hey All! Just about to start our profile, but unfortunately with COVID there are no orientation weekends in the foreseeable future. Does anyone have any recommendations of templates or software to use to create a profile book? Thanks!!

The birthcouple were experienced parents who would’ve loved to raise another child, but for their circumstances. This adoptive couple had returned to Abrazo expecting to add a boy up to age 5 to their family of five. Yet God had other options in mind for both couples, and they united in love, becoming the forever family of a beautiful baby girl yesterday. Blessings, all!!

Mea culpa! We've been so busy doting on our newest baby and her adoring parents in person that we neglected to post the baby announcement, but we couldn't be happier for the sweet baby girl whose birthmama and adoptive parents found each other with the help of another Abrazo birthmom. Friends don't let friends do closed adoptions, and we're so thankful that our community includes folks who truly care about each other. Congrats to our newest new parents, members of Abrazo's Crown Club, and God bless (all) our birthparents, too.

Hi! I'm Lauren. My husband and I are new to the adoption process and want to introduce ourselves. We live in a small town in northwest Louisiana (Natchitoches), so we are looking to connect with others here. Any words of advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Today’s placement— the first of Abrazo’s 27th year— was a beautiful tribute to faith and fortitude. The adoptive couple, members of the Crown Club 2020, had endured a failed adoption plan last fall, yet didn’t lose faith in the process. The birthmother had endured the loss of her other children previously, yet still wanted a better life for her newborn daughter, even as she knew how much her own sacrifice would hurt. Today, they were joined at placement by her loving sisters and their spouses, and together, they reveled in that precious baby, and the families all cried and laughed and prayed t

As All Saints Day approaches, we remember some special members of the Abrazo community who passed away in 2020: We honor the memory of adoptee and Abrazo grandpa BRUCE BERGER, who died of cancer. We honor the memory of Baby Alexander, who was to have been adopted, but was stillborn. We honor the memory of adoptive mother LINDA VENTURA, who never recovered after suffering a cardiac episode. We honor the memory of DAN GILETTE, an adoptive father who passed after a tragic tragic accident at his home. We give thanks for the lives of these and others in our adoption commu

She came to Abrazo only wanting to place with a local couple, because a truly open adoption was her dream for her child. In time, thought, this loving mother elected to choose an out-of-state couple from Abrazo’s Crown Club of 2020 who assured her the distance would never come between them. Today, they made a loving covenant on behalf of the sweet baby boy they all adore, and we wish each of them every joy in their new forever family relationship!
