🌈Celebrate Pride with our virtual Voices of Adoption event! 🌈

Join us for a special Voices of Adoption (V.O.A.) event in honor of PRIDE Month—created exclusively for LGBTQ+ adoptees ages 18+!

Meet fellow adoptees from around the world, spark meaningful conversations, and dive into the topics that matter most to you. The event will be hosted by Jacqueline Grogan—a transracial adoptee born in China. Now a mentor in the group where she was once a mentee, Jacqueline is eager to lend an ear and a voice to VOA this June in celebration of Pride. For Jacqueline, growing up as a queer, transracially adopted person of color — even in New York City — had its challenges, but in navigating the nuances of these intersecting identities, she has also discovered queer joy and the power of self-defining in your own terms and on your own time.

✨ Don’t miss this special Pride V.O.A. event! We will email the Zoom details after registering

📅 Registration closes at 4 PM on the day of the event—save your spot now!

Waiting Children Profiles

Thank you for your interest in adopting through Spence-Chapin! We are able to share the profiles of children who are considered to be the most in need and are waiting internationally to be matched with an adoptive family. The children featured on this page have been waiting for the longest to find families and consist of children who are older, part of a sibling group, or children with a diagnosed medical condition. In order to respect the privacy of these children, this page has been password protected.
