Adopting a child can be a rewarding experience, and members of our community choose to adopt children for a variety of reasons. Some are experiencing infertility, while others wish to create or expand their family through adoption. Increasingly, singles and gay and lesbian couples are becoming parents through the adoption process. Regardless of the reason for adoption, it is important to make sure that it is right for you.
Adoption presents many issues and choices to consider. Jewish Social Services can assist in obtaining reliable information and will provide confidential, caring support for Jewish individuals and Jewish or interfaith couples considering adoption.
Madison is the home to Jewish families who have adopted children in a variety of ways and from different places, both nationally and internationally. Because 25% of Jewish adoptions are trans-racial, there are many faces to our Jewish community. JSS is available to connect you with adoptive families who are willing to share their stories and offer insights.
