I'll speak anywhere I'm invited to speak: schools, youth groups, soccer team meetings -- anywhere!

Thank you so much for your continued encouragement. |
We promote adoption as a positive option for those facing unplanned pregnancies. It can be so very good (and beautiful!) for all involved.
Unplanned Good is reaching out to both teens and their parents, to let them know that adoption is an option. Studies have shown that girls are 50% more likely to see their pregnancy through and make an adoption plan when an adult suggests this path.
