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.
"Fostering is to help people that are struggling with addiction to overcome their addiction. You are a support system."
"Not only am I holding myself accountable, but people are trusting me to help hold them accountable, too."
"I always expected to get attached to the kids, but I never expected to get attached to the moms. That has been my biggest 'aha' moment."
"When I was first told to reach out to Moms Adopting Moms, I was a little nervous because I thought it would just be another organization in my business. I am really, really glad that I did."
"Sometimes we all need a little help, and in this case, we really needed it."
