Today is World Mental Health Day.

Mental health is an important part of overall well-being—and sometimes, life brings circumstances that can make caring for yourself feel especially difficult.

No matter what your role is, or where you are in your journey, adoption can bring many different emotions. There is no “right” way to feel, and asking for support is a sign of strength.

At Adoption Advocates, we believe both birth parents and adoptive families deserve compassionate, nonjudgmental support throughout the adoption process and beyond.

Today, we’re reminding everyone to make space for their mental health, reach out when they need support, and remember that they don’t have to navigate difficult moments alone.

As the only organization in the country working to address Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMAD) in birthparents, we are challenging the entire adoption constellation to Gather Momentum for birthparent care by supporting us in this critical work.

PMAD is treatable when diagnosed, but the screenings for it are done by pediatricians during well-baby visits, which means it is adoptive parents, not birthparents, being assessed.

Maternal mental health matters, and that is why we are developing ways to screen birthparents, and subsequently connect them to adoption-competent mental health providers. It is a monumental task, and we cannot do it without your support. Can you help us Gather Momentum for birthparent support by donating $25 today, in honor of our 25 years of service? https://f.mtr.cool/alxm5nvvn2

Meet Jennifer, a successful single woman in Houston who is ready to provide a loving home for a child.

"I’ve always wanted to be a mom, and God put adoption in my heart. Adoption is a beautiful gift. To me it is not just about adopting a child but expanding my family to include the child and his or her birth parents. Growing up I loved celebrating holidays and family milestones with the extended family and my goal would be to have as open of a relationship as you are comfortable having. Your child would grow up knowing you and the brave and selfless decision you made out of love to place him or her for adoption."
