LIFE CHANGES......NEW ADVENTURES......MANY POSSIBILITIES

I've been very busy the last few weeks - leaving my job as director of an adoption program after 22 years - and starting my new career path (albeit expanding the private practice I've had since 1979). As part of this transition, I have taken the position of Head Writer for Adoption.net, a fabulous, user friendly and comprehensive online community for anyone interested in or living as part of an adoptive family (adoptees, adopted and birth parents, extended family members, professionals, etc.). The site has lots of information and personal stories, both of which I have and will continue to contribute.
