Focus on the Family Joins White House Meeting on Adoption

 

The White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships hosted adoption leaders from across the country Wednesday to talk about how to better serve the needs of kids in foster care.

Kelly Rosati, adoptive mother of four and senior director of Focus on the Family’s Sanctity of Human Life department, was among those in attendance.

“The Obama administration is really listening," she said, "and wanted to know from those on the front lines what could be better done to serve the kids in America’s foster care system."

Unfortunately, the president supports placing some of those kids with homosexual couples.

Rosati said the White House expressed its appreciation for Focus’ commitment to the issue.

“One of the things that emerged from the meeting," she said, "was that adoption recruiting events, such as Focus’ Wait No More, are essential to our ability to find families for those waiting kids.”

Focus on the Family anticipates ongoing dialogue with the White House on adoption.
