HGTX has launched a brand-new statewide hub packed with post-adoption resources—built directly from the feedback and needs of adoptive families. From therapy, respite, training, and more, the site is regularly updated to support the adoption journey.
As we roll out this resource and more, we are always trying to learn more directly from families. We’re also working hard to connect children waiting in foster care with loving adoptive families. Adoptive families can help by sharing a bit about their own adoption experience.
Please share our hub and our survey with adoptive families in your network.
Help Families Find An Adoption Competent Therapist
The Heart Galleries of Texas (HGTX), in partnership with the National Center for Adoption Competent Mental Health Services, has launched an initiative to expand access to quality adoption competent care. Through this program, we have recruited and trained a cohort of dedicated therapists from across the state. With their specialized expertise and compassionate guidance, these therapists are ready to walk alongside families throughout their journey.Â

This is an ongoing initiative; we will add more therapists over time as our program continues. If you have any questions or are a therapist and would like more information about our initiative, please contact Samantha.Thompson@austin.utexas.edu.Â
