In March, 1994, the Gladney Center for Adoption's first internationally adopted child came home to the United States from Shanghai, China. Since that time, Gladney has placed nearly 1000 healthy infants and toddlers, and children of all ages with special needs, with families living in the United States. Over the past several years, adoption from China has emerged as an effective way to make or grow a family.

Five Years of Sarah!
On March 19,2007, a terrified, sobbing, tiny toddler was led to us in Guangzhou, China. Today Sarah is a warm, fiercely loving, bubbly, stubborn, soccer-playing fashionista. We are so so lucky to be her parents! Sarah was adopted through Gladney's Waiting Child program.
Above, Sarah poses on March 19, 2012 with a photo of herself in China in March 2007; makes herself a sandwich; and celebrates big brother James's birthday at a local Asian restaurant in January. "Big" sister Kathryn (just 8.5 months older) and mom Stephanie are also posing with the birthday boy.
