Mission Statement

New Promise Children and Family Services is committed to bringing loving families and children in need, together through the joy of adoption.

Description

We are a new adoption agency. However, our goal is to assist adoption worker's in moving forward with getting children adopted as swiftly as possible. However, there are many tasks that can slow down that process and overwhelm even the best of workers. A volunteer could assist the worker and the agency by running and keeping track of clearances and sending requests for medical records, Tasks such as these would help the adoption process move with greater ease and speed. Children who don't feel their attachments to a family are stable and recognized as permanent by society/schools/medical facilities, tend to experience anxiety and uncertainty. We want to eliminate that stress for a child as quickly as we can.
