Adoption Resources

Giving Tree Resource Library
The Giving Tree maintains a text, video and DVD library of resources on parenting, childhood development, adoption, foster parenting, attachment and a myriad of other issues for interested families. The library is supplemented by the Agency's monthly Parenting With Pride Education Series and our quarterly Newsletter.

Crisis Intervention Hotline
The Giving Tree staff is available for Crisis Intervention 24-hours a day, 7-days a week for families of The Giving Tree who find themselves in need of immediate/emergency assistance in addressing the needs of a child with special needs. The program maintains a hotline with immediate access to a trained Agency Social Worker. If you are a Giving Tree family in need of emergency assistance please call 404-408-9539. This program is partially funded by a grant provided by the UPS Foundation.
