The Galveston County Adoption Day Foundation sponsored the twelfth annual Galveston County Adoption Day event on November 21, 2015, at the Galveston County Justice Center in Galveston, Texas.
National Adoption Day, (www.nationaladoptionday.org), began nationally in California in 2000, and locally in Galveston County in 2004, (with the Foundation receiving 501(c)(3) status in 2007).
Its purpose is to help children who are in the custody of Children’s Protective Services due to physical and emotional abuse and who are currently with families who are ready to finalize their adoption but are unable to afford the adoption process.
