Jennie Painter
Founder and Director of ARCS
Adoption has brought much into my life. I have had the opportunity to work along side many people who have taught me much about courage, compassion, and love. Watching people chart their course through the loss and grief associated with infertility or placing a child for adoption has taught me a great deal about how to handle the losses in my own life. I am indebted to these people who showed me how to face adversity, learn from this loss, and then to emerge with even a greater appreciation for each day. As a result, I hope to impart this learning on to others. I feel very privileged to be part of the adoption community and hope to give to my clients what they have so generously given to me.
