Gladney exists to give children loving, caring families here at home and around the world. That's the heart of our mission.
For more than 135 years, Gladney has been a leading voice for improving the lives of children, adoptive families and birth parents. Our mission is to make a difference in the lives of birth parents, children and families here and around the world. We recognize that adoption is a lifelong journey. Our customized programs and services ensure that our families and birth parents are cared for and supported through every step of that journey.
I'm glad you had a good experience! Our family had a fantastic experience with Gladney. I fully support our daughters independent choice to mindfully place her new born son with an amazing stable loving couple. I'm thankful Gladney gave us multiple visits to slowly say goodbye to our grandson. We hope to see him again some day. Year's later I still pray for the parents who adopted our grandson through Gladney. It's a bitter sweet process, but a blessing if done correctly!
Very happy you had a good experience with Gladney. My family's experience was heart-breaking. If Gladney had just allowed my daughter to have her feelings & talk it out with her, I believe my grandson's adoption would not have failed. In the end, I had 1 hour to pick her up or they were putting her on the street. I would never recommend Gladney to anyone!
Thank God for people like you. The greatest gift of life is children. It doesn't matter if they are your biological or adopted, it is our duty to love and protect them. I wish everyone would consider opening their hearts and homes to them...they need us.
Wow! I'm so inspired and touched to see this piece: it feels amazing to have that sense that someone can have that assurance that they are cared about, and wanted, and celebrated.
