Unplanned Good

We had a wonderful time at the Friends of RealOptions’ gala in San Jose recently!

Anne Steeley organized our table and was joined by a couple of wonderful friends for the evening.

We’re so grateful to this beautiful team and for the opportunity to share more about adoption!

Our founder, Terri Marcroft, sat down with Natalie Lair from the Desert Wanderers Podcast to discuss adoption and the legislative impact surrounding adoption and birth mothers today.

Unplanned Pregnancies: Adoption not Abortion To evangelize and teach, through multi-media communications, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, with the fullness of Truth of the Catholic Church. We strive to be Salt & Light (Mt 5:13-16) to all: to promote and build up Christ's body, the Church.

"[I just said] thank you [to my birth mom] for choosing the two greatest parents for me. Thank you for giving me this beautiful, amazing life. I [am] so grateful that she made the decision to (place me) for adoption." –Alicia Mae Holloway, Adoptee ❤️

"The mother in me will do anything and everything within my power to protect my son. I will always choose my child first, no matter what the cost is to me. That has been my mentality as a birth mother from day one, and it continues to be my mentality today. You see, I knew what I was doing when I chose adoption for my baby." –Lindsay, Birth Mom ❤️

"Open adoption has shown me that love is limitless. The openness of my adoption has enriched my life in more ways than I could tell you. It has empowered me to be the writer of my own story…I have always known I was loved deeply by so many people." -Christine, Adoptee

Erin is a birth mom who placed her daughter in an open adoption, just as that option was becoming a common practice; she shares her journey below.

"Adoption is profoundly personal, and the needs, wishes, and feelings of the birthparents, adoptive parents, and the child depend on countless variables…I wanted other birth mothers to know they are not alone, and though every woman’s situation is different, her voice is a critical part of the story."
