Joshua and David
We're looking to adopt a baby
Hello! And thank you for reading our story.
We’re Josh and David. We met in 2012, playing board games in a coffee shop in Washington, DC, and we hit it off right away. It was a wonderful way to meet, because we knew from the start that we had a lot in common and that we liked each other. Since then, we’ve learned that we had similar dreams, hopes, and aspirations for our lives. We’ve been together ever since, and have made a close and cozy life together, filled with laughter and love.
We got married in 2018, and bought our house later that same year. We don’t have any children yet, but we know this is the right time for us to start a family, so that a child can grow up in the safe and caring home environment we’ve built together. We’re looking for someone to help us start the next chapter of our life together, by allowing us to offer a child a place in our home and family.
Financial Support

Your adoption social worker can help you determine what level of assistance you qualify for and deserve. Many expectant mothers qualify for financial assistance to cover basic pregnancy and living expenses, including but not limited to - transportation reimbursement, utility assistance for phone, water, and electricity/gas, maternity clothing and supplements, etc.

Navigating a pregnancy alone is never easy. Depending on your situation and location, you may qualify for financial assistance to help cover the cost of basic living expenses, such as food and groceries.

In order to have a healthy pregnancy, it's important that you have everything you need to lead a healthy lifestyle. The cost of some household items may be covered during your pregnancy.
