When Janet was a baby, her biological mother sought support from The Village with the hope of being able to keep Janet. She was a single mother in the 1960s who was doing her best to make it work. Ultimately, she made the difficult decision to give Janet up for adoption—a choice that led Janet to her family and “a wonderful life.”
During our reunion for adoptees and adoptive parents, Scott and Janet recognized one another as friends from high school. Until then, neither of them realized that they were adopted from the same place only a year apart.
“The Village has given me a wonderful life and a great foundation.”
