About Freedom Families Foundation Inc
For active-duty military families, adoption can come with substantial legal, travel, agency, and other costs, even after a child joins the family. Freedom Families Foundation provides targeted post-adoption financial support for qualifying families, helping offset eligible expenses after a non-kinship adoption is finalized. Your support also helps advance adoption-friendly policies for service members building permanent homes for children of all ages, including older youth and sibling groups.
Freedom Families Foundation focuses specifically on adoption costs for active-duty commissioned officers and noncommissioned officers in any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces. Its assistance comes after adoption finalization, with support for eligible expenses and advocacy aimed at reducing barriers for military families.
