Join families just like you who are either starting out on their adoption journey or have finally completed their family through adoption. There are many stories for you to read where you can laugh, cry, and share the joy.

Gladney's Adoption Experience Journals are free, easy-to-use Web pages that help family and friends communicate during their loved ones adoption journey. It takes just a few minutes to create an Adoption Experience Journal, share it with friends and family, and build a web community of support.

Adoption Experience Journals help families:

• Create an online meeting place
• Share news and photos as often as wanted
• Receive emotional support during the ups and downs of the adoption journey

While each adoption is different and every adoption journey takes its own path, the common thread is love. Love of children.

Adoption Experience Journals help families stay connected, informed, and supported. When a loved one is traveling the road to adoption, it can be difficult to answer the same questions over and over again. With Adoption Experience Journals, updates are shared via email automatically and visitors can leave messages for the family on the Web page. Adoption experience journals give families an emotional lift that is hard to deliver in any other way.

All families currently working with Gladney will receive access information and instructions. Once you have that information, all you need to do is return to this site, register and start your own journal. Then you can:

• Write your first update. Post some photos if you have them.
• Share the Adoption Experience Journal with friends and family by inviting them to your journal.
• Exchange news and messages with other Gladney families.
• Discover how an Adoption Experience Journal can change your adoption experience.
