“Nearly twelve years ago, frustrated and sometimes disheartened by his own efforts to adopt, Arty Elgart vowed to humanize the adoption process. Golden Cradle sprang from that personal adoption experience. This is an agency where the services offered acknowledge the profound and personal nature of each individual adoption.”
“Though it began as a volunteer effort, Golden Cradle is now managed by a staff of over a dozen social service professionals who have coordinated nearly 1,000 adoptions to date. Despite its phenomenal growth, Golden Cradle still looks upon adoption as a lifelong process for all concerned, and maintains contact with many of its families.” “In this book, Arty Elgart shares his unique perspective on adoption.”
