Financial support for TRJ Annual Family Camp and year-round post-adoptive services is needed now more than ever. Your gift funds programming that impacts the well being of transracially adopted children and their families in more than 12 mid-western and eastern states.
Your contribution provides post-adoption support for children and their families, which they cannot find anywhere else, in the following ways:
-
-
- Year-round support through monthly meet-ups, newsletters, and resources that families can use every day at home.
- Guest speakers and professional facilitators who present at TRJ Annual Family Camp.
- Transracially adopted young adult counselors who guide children in age-appropriate discussions about adoption, identity, and race at camp.
- Scholarship assistance to families who otherwise would not be able to attend camp.
-
In order to keep camp affordable, camp fees cover only part of the camp costs. Individual and corporate donations along with a few hard to come by grant awards make up the difference. We do a lot with very little, so every donation of any amount matters.
