Minnesota Adoption Resource Network While faith moves people to adopt from overseas, faith is moving people to adopt children from “our own backyard.” As international adoptions decrease, the need is heightened to recruit families for Minnesota children who wait.

Minnesota Adoption Resource Network The true measure of a country’s greatness is in its treatment of children. In hard economic times, cutting services to our most vulnerable reflects who and what we truly value.

Minnesota Adoption Resource Network If every church in Minnesota would help find a family for one child or sibling group, the number of children awaiting adoptive families would be reduced from 650 to ZERO. MARN is encouraging communities of faith to PLEDGE ZERO in November. Contact Paula Graff at Paulagraff@aol.com for more information.
