Celebrating Adoption Month at SDFS

by

Throughout the month of November, the New York City Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) recognized National Adoption Month by celebrating New Yorkers who have adopted and professionals who work to support the adoption process.

Meet Denise Chaddick, the SDFS 2020 Adoptive Parent Honoree who have adopted 3 children since the beginning of 2020.

National Adoption Month is celebrated every November across the country to remind everyone that there are children and teens in foster care who cannot return home and who need loving forever families.

We celebrate Ms. Chaddick for her selflessness and our dedicated team, who, despite the challenges have continued to support the process.
