Understanding Adoption – Christie Mac Segars

41 minutes

Tracie Shellhouse welcomes Christie Mac Segars, Vice President of Domestic Services at Lifeline Children’s Services to explore the reasons why women may hesitate to consider adoption and the importance of educating clients on their options without any judgement or pressure. Pregnancy help organizations are uniquely positioned to make meaningful, relational connections between their clients and adoption agencies, providing a strong bridge to much-needed resources.
