The collective effort is intended to raise awareness about adoption. In 2017, nearly 5,000 American youths in foster care were adopted; while another 117,000 plus children in foster care await placement with permanent and loving families. Visit the National Adoption Day, Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption and Adoption at the Movies websites for more information.
