Adoption Can Transform Families

Adoption Resources
We provide resources and support for families seeking to adopt, including counseling, legal assistance, and guidance throughout the process.

Educating the Public
We believe that educating the public on how to help adopting or foster care families is crucial to building a supportive community. We give you the path you need to help families in a way they actually need!

Supporting Foster Care
We also provide support for families in the foster care system, including resources for finding placements, ongoing support, and advocacy for children in care.
How Does It Work?
At ACT Families, we are dedicated to helping every family find their home. We believe that every child deserves a loving family, and we work tirelessly to make that a reality. We have access to a network of professionals, volunteers, and advocates who provide resources, support, and guidance throughout the adoption and foster care process. From counseling to legal assistance, we are here to help. Join us in our mission to give every child a loving home.

Lend a Helping Hand!
My name is Peyton and I'm passionate about adoption.
l was a life saved from abortion after my Birthmother visited a crisis pregnancy center. She selflessly created my adoption plan and I went to my forever home at only three days old.
Since I was three years old, I’ve been serving as an advocate for adoption and foster care alongside local pro-life centers and family resource centers. My passion is to bring awareness to families through fundraising, participating in events and readily sharing my own story of adoption and being a former foster-sister.
Contact me to speak at your next pro-life event!
