November is National Adoption Month.
I'm not going to blog every day about it, but will try and do it at least a few times.
You already know that adoption is near and dear to my heart.
Its also the hardest thing I've ever done.
Its also the best thing I've ever done.
Statistics from the National Council For Adoption say that last year in the United States, there were 1.2 million abortions, and only 18,000 infants born in the U.S. placed for adoption. Obviously, there's a whole lot of work to be done in making information about adoption available to expectant mothers faced with an unplanned pregnancy.
Want to help?
Its pretty easy, here's a few ideas:
-blog about adoption (in general, or those who you know who have adopted/or are hoping to adopt)
-post something about adoption on facebook or twitter
-if you hear of someone facing an unplanned pregnancy, talk about adoption as a choice or tell them about someone you know that's hoping to adopt
