At Family Network Adoption Center, we believe that adoption is not a one-time event—it’s a lifelong journey. 

In alignment with our agency’s philosophy of openness, transparency, and personal choice, we are excited to introduce a new initiative that reflects our commitment to holistic, whole-person care in adoption.

Introducing Holistic Adoption: A Mind-Body Approach

This new offering brings together the emotional, mental, and physical aspects of identity to help adoptees thrive. Adoption affects every part of a person’s life—and our goal is to support adult adoptees in understanding all aspects of who they are.

Partnering with Isaac Etter, Found of PARENTING DIFFERENT, for Deeper Insight into Genetic Predispositions

To expand access to biological information, we’ve partnered with Parenting Different—a mission-driven organization dedicated to providing empowering resources to the adoption community.

This partnership allows us to connect adult adoptees to tools that explore their genetic predispositions related to:

• Physical wellness & chronic disease risk

• Mental health & emotional resilience

• Detoxification, methylation & nutrient processing

• Neurotransmitter balance & sleep cycles

Why Holistic Adoption?

Because understanding yourself is powerful and actionable.

Whether it’s understanding a genetic tendency toward anxiety or discovering a sensitivity to certain foods, this program provides tools that can enhance daily life, personal health, and emotional well-being.

Tammy Ramsay, adoptive mom and our Community Outreach Coordinator, will be working with Isaac Etter, adoptee, author & founder of Parenting Different, to connect adoptees with resources that support self-understanding and informed choices through DNA analysis for mental & physical health.

Tammy and Isaac share a passion for empowering adoptees through education, access, and compassionate support.
