Get Involved
Becoming active with your community and agency is a great way to build great parenting advocacy skills, get to know the Adoption S.T.A.R. agency (including building lasting friendships with other families who have adopted!) and reap plenty of personal rewards. We welcome you! Please call the agency or email info@adoptionstar.com for more information on how you can participate.

We have a committee for everyone! Here are few committees that you may be interested in learning more about!

African American Task Force

The goal of the task force is to educate the community of the need to find families for African American and to work toward recruiting families of all races interested in adopting African American infants.

Community Outreach Committee

This committee supports Adoption S.T.A.R.'s mission by assisting with marketing, fundraising, outreach and advocacy initiatives through special events and projects. Comprised of adoptive parents, community leaders and other friends of our agency, this committee helps us build new relationships with businesses, organizations and people who believe in forever families.

Social Action Committee

The goal of this committee is to focus on serving other charities or projects that need assistance and to build relationships with other charitable organizations within our community through volunteer projects. Over the years, Adoption S.T.A.R. has held a crayon drive for a public school whose families struggle to afford school supplies. We have sent packages to soldiers deployed overseas. We have volunteered to paint group homes and organized a blood drive. As a non-profit, Adoption S.T.A.R. is dedicated to assisting other non-profits. In addition through the international adoption program, Adoption S.T.A.R. is involved in many humanitarian aide projects.

In addition to the committees listed above, Adoption STAR has an Educators' Committee, Community Professional's Committee, and a Summer Picnic Committee. For more information, do not hesitate to contact the agency.

If you have not already signed up for a committee and you would like more information on these special programs, available to you free of charge, please e-mail us at info@adoptionstar.com with your interest.

In addition to the committees listed above, Adoption S.T.A.R. sponsors several support and social groups.

Blue Rose is the Birth Mother Support Group of Adoption S.T.A.R.

Sofia (Supporting Our Families Interested in Adoption) is the adoptive family support group of Adoption S.T.A.R.

A.C.E. (Adoptee Circle of Experience) is an adult adoptee support group.

Birth Grandparent Support Group is a group specifically for the parents of birth parents who have placed a child for adoption.
