Beth Edwards rated 5 a week ago Gladney is the perfect mix of professional, but warm. Everyone we worked with for our adoption processes made the journey as easy as possible and supported us through all the highs and lows. Mary Chapman was always steps ahead of me when I requested something and I’m pretty sure one of her super powers is reading my mind. Gladney is family! |
Diane Weeks rated 5 4 weeks ago Nice place. I had a baby back in 1972 at the old Edna grande on hemphill and I was finally introduced to my son August 18th there at the new facility |
Elizabeth Brock-Jones rated 5 7 months ago Gladney made an overwhelming process seem manageable and they took care of everything! We picked Gladney after reviewing and talking to multiple agencies. We live in Oregon and so picking an out of state agency felt like a risk but the second we stepped foot on campus for orientation, we knew we made the right choice. They were organized, professional, understanding of families situations, full of knowledge about the process, full of experts to help us through the process, and most importantly... transparent about costs, about timing, about what a roller coaster adoption can be. Orientation talked about financial aspects (costs, assistance, timing), had a birth mother panel, and a family who had recently adopted and I loved that they talked realistically about expectations and had birth moms on the panel who had a range of feelings about their experiences. We felt prepared and aware of what the process could look like, they minimized the unknowns and answered all questions we had (and there were a lot!). If you're reading this, I urge you to take the step of just reaching out to them... and if you want to know more about our process, ask Gladney for our email (Liz and Pat) and I'll gladly share more of the process with you! |
MAGGIE FRAZIER rated 5 a year ago When we first began the process of adoption, we still had a lot to learn. Gladney was so helpful in providing us with trainings and resources that help prepare you for how the process will be and what to expect. Our caseworkers were great in answering questions as quickly as they were able to. They were very open with us about how the process would work, especially with our history of loss. When we were matched, our caseworker was great in helping us stay level headed while also maintaining that excitement that comes with it. She helped us prepare for meeting our birth mother as well as conversation points to help us have a good meeting with her. We have been so blessed with how Gladney has been involved from the beginning to now (1 1/2 years later). We have already contacted Gladney to begin the process of adopting with them again. We would recommend Gladney to anyone that is looking for an adoption agency. |
Phillip Miller rated 1 3 years ago I am glad we fought the baby mill and got my step daughter back. They promise open adoption and then systematically gather "evidence" to close it. Case workers appear to have conflict of inerest, please Gladney and get paid or protect the birth mother." |
