US: Celebrating LGBTQ Adoptive Families During National Adoption Month

December 1, 2016 by Greg Cywnar

➡ From Child Welfare Information Gateway NJ:

US: Celebrating LGBTQ Adoptive Families During National Adoption Month
Human Rights Campaign – December 01, 2016
In connection with HRC’s celebration of Transgender Awareness Week we were thrilled to share the story of Quinn, a transgender parent in Florida, and his partner who together adopted Tristan. We also shared the story of Deasia and Nikki, the first same-sex couple to wed in Guam, who adopted a transgender child after first serving as the child’s foster parents.
