About One Voice |
|
One Voice is a new organization dedicated to changing the face of adoption in the United States. With so many organizations doing so much hard work to change adoption, we believe it is necessary to maximize the impact of the work being done by each individual organization. While we do not believe everyone must be a member of every organization, we do believe that by working with us organizations can connect and maximize the work they are doing so well. We can distill the various messages of adoption work into a clear, united voice. In order to help us unite the voices of all the different organizations, we ask that you notify us of events, campaigns, conferences, speaking opportunities and anything else related to adoption so we can connect like-minded people and groups. |
