Confronting Religious Discrimination: A Guide for Foster & Adoptive Parents

When the government discriminates against foster and adoptive parents based on their religious beliefs, children are harmed. These kids need forever homes—not radical ideology.

Christians have been key to providing resources and open arms to vulnerable children for hundreds of years. The earliest orphanages in North America were created by dedicated Christian groups, and people of faith continue to lead the way today.

Yet, some state officials are now rejecting Christians and other religious families—depriving children of loving homes because those families disagree with the government’s position on issues like sexuality and gender.

That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom has created a free guide, Confronting Religious Discrimination: A Guide for Foster & Adoptive Parents, to equip you with the facts. Within the pages, you’ll find:

  • The important role Christians have historically played in adoption and foster care;
  • How children in need are harmed when the government and other entities discriminate against people of faith;
  • What ADF is doing to help protect families’ rights so they can continue taking in and caring for children;
  • And more.

We’re proud to stand with loving families willing to open their hearts and homes to children in need.
