During this difficult economy where some not for profit organizations are closing their doors, Adoption STAR is growing! The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Open House is a special event to celebrate our new state of the art facility.
Adoption Star began in 2000 with donated space and then moved into a small office space in 2001. That office grew into a 2,000 square feet office space in 2002! After renting for a number of years, dreams became reality of owning their own 3,000 square foot building in 2005. In October 2012, Adoption STAR sold its main office and purchased a larger property – more than double the size – and uses the additional space to better accommodate its growing staff, client counseling and educational needs and expansion of post-adoption support services.
