Each November, National Adoption Month brings attention to children and youth in foster care who are waiting for permanent family connections, while recognizing the importance of belonging, stability and lifelong support.
At The Barker Adoption Foundation, we believe adoption is more than a moment in time. It’s a lifelong experience shaped by relationships, identity, family and community. Our commitment extends to adopted people of all ages, birth families, adoptive families and those exploring adoption.
This November, we invite you to join us for meaningful conversations, opportunities to learn and experiences that strengthen our community.
Explore our November events and find your opportunity to connect.

National Adoption Month reminds us why this work matters—not only in helping children and families come together, but in supporting the relationships, connections and experiences that follow.
Through education, counseling and lifelong services, Barker is committed to walking alongside individuals and families through every stage of the adoption journey.
Your generosity helps make this ongoing commitment possible.
