Gladney Center for Adoption

One staff member is on drugs and incoharhaent 60% of the time. They only care about making money off adoptions and not the birth mother. They refuse to extend help for one day while the birth mom's home is getting cleaned and sanitized for move in. Read more >

They don’t ever answer the phone 🥺 Read more >

The staff are amazing. They offer excellent resources for individuals needing assistance and for educators who implement their curriculum in their classrooms. I have loved having Gladney be a part of my Child Development classroom for almost 10 years now. I look forward to continuing using the AdoptEd materials in future years. Read more >

My wife was adopted through Gladney in 2000. Five years ago, at the age of 21, she needed her adoption documents to obtain her driver's license. Unfortunately, her adoptive parents did not provide her with the necessary paperwork. Desperate for any birth documents, she reached out to Gladney. To our disappointment, the agency claimed they had no files and were unable to assist.

This experience highlighted a significant issue: Gladney appears to lack adequate support for adoptees and does not effectively organize or maintain their paperwork. Furthermore, there seem to be no resources available for adoptive parents to ensure a smooth transition for their children into adulthood.

My wife struggled without identification until she was 23, which caused unnecessary hardship. We hope that Gladney will improve their processes and support systems to better assist... Read more >

I am a gladney baby, 1 of 7 adopted in the year 2001. I am Ekaterina Boucher and my siblings are Nick Boucher, Sergie Boucher, Tatiana Boucher, Dmitri Boucher, Peter Boucher, Mikhail Boucher. Gladney has failed me and my family. My mother Lisa Boucher has now passed away. And me and my siblings are suffering to retain our documents, we are now all in our late 20s and some of us are unable to get an ID or a drivers license because the Gladney system has failed in giving us the proper documents we need to become citizens.No well fair checks were ever conducted and now we all suffer here with trauma and no documents. This company only cares about the MONEY and not the children. Gladney you failed us all miserably. DO NOT ADOPT FROM HERE. GLADNEY WILL FAIL YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN. Read more >

Pay attention to those who take the time to warn you about this place: This adoption center barely checks up on the kids they kidnap from their home country, they only care about profit. My boyfriend was adopted through this MAFIA organization and it has cost him greatly, his adoptive parents (or should I called them captors?) didn’t complete the naturalization process for him so now he could face deportation since he isn’t an American citizen and there’s nothing this organization can do for him, shame on them for not checking up on the kids they give away and they profit from as if they were dealing with simple animals not human beings.

Currently working on a lawsuit, don’t let other kids go through this. Read more >

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the Gladney Center! Kerry and Elizabeth came to speak to my Child Development courses this Spring and did an amazing job educating my students on the adoption process. Their presentation was so impactful I had one of my students write about it for their final essay in my course!

As a bonus, Gladney has a new AdoptED virtual program! I utilized the Kinship Adoption course as an extension activity and it was wonderful. The course was self paced, informative, and teacher friendly as it let me monitor students progress for grading. Read more >

Love what they do Read more >

Visited here for a school field trip..

The staff was fun and energetic from the start of the presentations. They allowed plenty of time for students to ask questions. Brought in an actual case worker that students asked questions as well. Good informational trip forsure! Read more >
