At first, I was emotional seeing Ro'Nae struggle. Now, we are not doing this alone. I know she's going to be OK. I'm relieved knowing that she's getting better. Therapy at The Children's Institute is helping Ro'Nae live a normal childhood.

We were just one little family with a child who was different, climbing this huge mountain of medical complexity and feeling lost, scared, and alone. And then, thank goodness, we discovered The Children's Institute.

When I started looking for more information about adoption, [The Children's Institute] was very responsive. They answered all of my questions and were very flexible in accommodating our needs and desires. They provided so many resources to help us make the best decisions to grow our family.
