FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MOMS ADOPTING MOMS
Our Story
Moms Adopting Moms was inspired by the story of our founder and former foster parent Mary. Mary supported and encouraged the mother of the children that came into her care twice in a five year period. She was there to help her get off drugs, get away from abusive relationships, and find healing from the trauma of her past to become the wife, mom, and member of society she always prayed of being. Mary, her husband Alan, and daughter Chloe figuratively adopted Christina's whole family and now work to encourage other foster parents to do the same.
Moms Adopting Moms is a 501(c)(3) approved nonprofit organization located in Clarke County, Georgia dedicated to improving the lives of children in the foster care system, their biological families and their foster parents by cultivating a peer mentoring relationship between the mothers that will help them through reunification and beyond.

Moms Adopting Moms partners with a variety of organizations and businesses in our community to provide comprehensive A-Z assistance and resources to our clients in their local area. This includes detox and rehabilitation centers, food banks, clothes closets, counseling offices, work placements, training colleges, childcare options, transportation assistance, and housing referrals. We want to ensure our clients success through offering this ordered sequence of events bio parents must take to complete their case plan, achieve reunification, and thrive as a family.
Our vision is to make the reunification process easier and faster and remind bio parents they are not alone. With the individualized resource plans Moms Adopting Moms provides, we aim to alleviate the amount of work for case workers and foster parents, so they have time to provide the care, encouragement, and support each case desperately needs. We also hope to introduce legal assistance services for parents seeking guidance in partnership with local family lawyers with a heart for service to their communities.
Our Future

We imagine a time when life is easier for everyone involved in the foster care process. We imagine a day when this crisis has ended and the system is no longer broken. We imagine a day when case workers aren't overwhelmed, foster parents aren't ready to throw in the towel, and biological parents aren't asked to achieve the impossible or be faced with losing their children forever.
Embracing the future of AI, we are working on developing a responsive and collaborative app to generate digital A-Z plans of action to assist families in crisis. We are actively collecting data relevant to foster care and family preservation and consulting with capable teams to begin working towards this dream. We hope to develop a model that is easy to replicate nationwide to streamline the entire foster care process starting as early as from the identification of a family at risk, to those who already have children in the system. This ensures families are helped faster, kids are returned quicker, and families are no longer at risk.
In our effort to allow moms the opportunity to thrive with their children post reunification, we picture a transitional housing facility where mothers who have graduated from rehab can come to live, work, take classes and be supported. When their children are reunified to them, they move from one large home with other ladies in similar circumstances to their own tiny home where they will continue to receive wrap around services for upwards of two years and graduate with a solid financial, educational and career plan in place to see them thrive.
