Now THIS is what we call “riding for the brand,” when three of the most renowned musicians on the East Coast represent! Thank you to the Novacek family for sharing this sweet photo, for your loyal support, and for always keeping your #openadoption promise. #abrazoland #adoptionrocks #classicalrules

The hardworking #AbrazoChicks are always committed; to our clients and to the cause. Our team members pictured here have a combined total of 59 years of devoted service to our agency and its children. Because we believe in what we do and those for whom we do it. #abrazonation #adoption #openadoption

Here we go again… another #Texas legislative session, another proposed bill to secure adult adoptees’ right to their own original birth certificates, because YES, VITAL RECORDS ARE VITAL! (Be sure to visit the #STAR (Support Texas Adoptee Rights website. Your support is also vital!) #adopteerights

Worried about what the threats about revoking birthright citizenship could mean to you or someone you care about? We are, too. abrazo.org/2025/01/20/b... #adoption

We remember Jean. Her advocacy (and that of so many others) is never forgotten, even though the work continues.

Why does the State encourage #babyabandonment instead of #adoption through the many private nonprofit agencies all across #Texas? We’re here to help, and at Abrazo, the loving #openadoption plans we provide are truly a #safehaven for mamas in need.

This is a remarkable young man— an Abrazokid with an extraordinary family who love him so, they just celebrated his 20th birthday 19
years after the experts told them he had a life expectancy of two years! If that isn’t a real-life miracle, we don’t know what is?! 💜 #adoption

Did you know that for more than 25 years, Abrazo has been able to award college and trade school scholarships to qualified Abrazo #birthmothers through the San Antonio Area Foundation, thanks to
the generosity of famed novelist (and AbrazoMom) Jacquelyn Mitchard?! saafdn.org/scholarships/

Scholarships < San Antonio Area Foundation

College is about more than earning a degree. It is about encountering different people and cultures in a place.

So happy that this #Abrazobabe and his birthfamily found his adoptive family exactly when they did… we wish them all peace and joy this holiday season, as they grow as the forever family they now are. #openadoption#fyp #adoption #fromTexaswithhugs #adopting

The weather outside’s turning frightful, but goodies from Emery’s parents and from Tony C. mde our Thursday delightful! Thanks, y’all! #adoptionagency #abrazonation

We’re curious whether the politicians wanting to end #birthrightcitizenship have considered how it will impact US #adoption and #surrogacy? (And how will citizenship be verified for #safehaven #babybox dropoffs?) Just asking for a friend… 👶🏼👶🏻👶🏿

There’s ample reason why this is one of everyone’s favorite staff members and has been for 8 years and counting. Happy Anniversary, Ximena, & thank you for your loyalty and dedication to our entire community. #adoption #goestheextramile

What sweeter way to celebrate the holidays than to welcome our newest #abrazobabe into the world, and build a new #foreverfamily of all the four #parents who adore her most? We know #adoption is always a miracle and what better time of year for one?

Abrazo Adoption @abrazo.bsky.social · Dec 1

It’s THAT TIME of year, again! Annual (printed) progress reports and photos for all finalized adoptions of AbrazoKids under 19 are due at Abrazo by 12/15, please… (and we need filled stockings, too, if you’re willing to help?) Many thanks, everyone! #AbrazoNation #adoption #fyp

Congrats to the latest Abrazo #parentsinwaiting whose dream has come true— thanks to the beautiful #birthmom who made it all possible. #openadoption #fromTexaswithlove

It's all to easy for others to question a loving mother's decision to choose adoption for her baby. But know this: #adoption is never (ever) an easy option. (Nor should it be.) For more info about placing a #baby or child for adoption, visit abrazo.org/pregnant-placing, or call 1-800-454-5683. #fyp

A newly-delivered mother in a pink hospital gown is holding her tiny newborn wrapped in a hospital blanket. On either side of her are two licensed counselors who are supporting her in her decision to place her baby for adoption.
