Get involved

Help Adopt NI to make a real difference in the lives of adults impacted by adoption or family separation. Your support helps empower individuals, strengthen communities, and drive meaningful change.

"A social worker with the Northern Trust recommended that I get in touch with Adopt NI to help find my birth parents.
From the beginning they were very professional and found out lots of information that helped me in my search. Their researchers have access to information that we don’t or don’t have the time to find..."

Donate

While we are funded to deliver programmes for ROTS and MBMLW in Northern Ireland, our support services outside of this remain unfunded.  Every donation, no matter the size, helps us continue providing regional support and reaching more adults in need. Contributions directly fund the nurturing and guidance we offer to adults as they navigate their experience.

“As an adoptee, I understand the importance of lifelong support for all those affected by adoption. Since 1989, Adopt NI have been providing a wide range of services and often a voice for those who need it on their individual adoption journey.

 

My sincere hope is that Adopt NI will always be there whilst anyone needs us.”
