Brooklyn Family Court finalizes 40 adoptions for National Adoption Month
The Kings County Family Court held its annual Adoption Day event in conjunction with the National Adoption Month where judges finalized the adoptions for 40 children and their families who are living in Brooklyn during a special ceremony on Thursday.
“The goals of Adoption Day are to finalize adoptions across the country, honor the families who adopt and raise awareness about children waiting to be adopted and encouraging others to adopt,” said Hon. Amanda White, supervising judge of the Brooklyn Family Court.
“By giving a permanent home to the children being adopted today, you are also giving these children a strong foundation, a home, a family to love and a safe place to grow. You are affirming the role of adoption in the lives of American families in our country,” he said.
