is dedicated to all persons touched by adoption and foster care, offering
assistance and support. HATW is dedicated to the belief that every child deserves

We

in the state of Michigan, but can act as your placing agency, what ever
state you live in.
Our
staff has been personally touched by adoption. We are here to help you
navigate your own personal adoption journey to make your dreams come
true.
We believe every child deserves a family.
Children come first.

need to be found for
children....
not children for families.
