November is National Adoption Month - Nickelodeon is helping kick things off this Sunday

November is just around the corner and here at the Devine home, we are super excited about the month ahead. It’s going to be a busy month and we are going to continue spreading tons of awareness in hopes of finding special children, just like Halle-Grace, forever families.

Not only is November National Adoption Month… The National Council For Adoption (NCFA) is celebrating 30 years in our Nations Capital, and Little Miss Magic is turning 3!

To help kick off the month please tune in this coming Sunday, October 24th. Nick News with Linda Ellerbee will premier a new half-hour special, "Foster Care: A Reality Check," at 9:00pm EST on Nickelodeon.




With almost half a million children in U.S. foster care, this special will address tough questions such as: How did they wind up there? How do they cope with moving from home to home? And what happens when they're no longer kids? Hear stories from children like Isaiah and Solomon, twin brothers from upstate New York. "One thing (my mother) said that really bothered me was, um, she never meant to have me," Isaiah says. "They may not have chosen the path they travel," says Ellerbee, "but they have a lot to teach the rest of us about courage, strength and resilience."

PLEASE watch…"Foster Care: A Reality Check" premiers this Sunday at 9:00pm EST on Nickelodeon. For more information, visit NCFA website www.adoptioncouncil.org
