Catholic Charities to Host Adoption Information Program

NEWARK, N.J. — Family and Adoption Services of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Newark invites the public to attend an Adoption Information Program on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., at Engelhard Hall, 499 Belgrove Drive, Kearny.

“Our staff will deliver an informative presentation on adoption issues and processes, and we will be available to answer audience questions afterward,” explained Patricia Chiarello, program manager for Family and Adoption Services. “In addition to covering domestic adoption, we will also discuss our international adoption program, which has placed children from China, Vietnam, Korea, India, Russia, Guatemala, Columbia, and Ethiopia in loving, permanent homes.”

Catholic Charities’ Family and Adoption Services — a fully-licensed adoption agency serving Essex, Hudson, Union, and Bergen counties — is committed to supporting, sustaining, and preserving families challenged by a crisis pregnancy, infertility, adoption, or post-adoption concerns.
