Family Building Through Adoption for LGBTQ Dads

Increasingly, LGBTQ parents are choosing to build their families through adoption. Today, nearly one-quarter (21.4%) of same-sex couples with children have chosen to adopt. There are over 100,000 children in the U.S. waiting to be adopted into a good, loving home – and yours could be one of them.
