Dear Birth Parent,
Thank you for checking out our profile!
We know that choosing an adoptive family for your child is probably an overwhelming (and unexpected) decision. But we appreciate so much the gift you're giving to couples like us.
We'd like to tell you a bit about ourselves, our life in New York City, and-if it feels right for you- how your child would be welcomed into our family.

We can only imagine the overwhelming mix of emotions you are going through at this time. We admire the strength and courage you have to embark on this journey.
Our hope is that through these pages you get a sense of the life your child would have in our family-- a life full of unconditional love, adventure, and never ending support. We hope to join you on this path of adoption and go side by side navigating the twists and turns together.
Ryan and Teddy
Dear Birth Mother,
Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We recognize that this decision comes with incredible strength and love, and we have the utmost respect for the thought and care you are putting into this process.
We are a devoted couple from New York, married for two years, and partners for seven. Our relationship is rooted in love, respect, and shared values, and we are eager to extend that foundation into building a family. From the start, we envisioned a home filled with warmth, traditions, and a deep sense of belonging- a home where a child could thrive and be embraced for exactly who they are.
We hope this profile gives you a glimpse into who we are and the kind of parents we hope to be. More than anything, we want you to know how much we admire your courage and selflessness. No matter what you decide, we are here to support you in any way we can and are honored to be part of this journey with you.
Megan
Hi! I'm Meg
Adopting a child has been my path to parenthood ever since I can remember. I feel prepared and confident enough now to parent so I shared the news with my family and closest friends who were incredibly supportive and am starting the adoption process.
Within these next pages, please take a tour of what life could be like for your child. These pages include a look at my hobbies and interests (besides Netflix), my family (it's big), my friends (there are many), the kids that are excited to welcome a new member to the crew, and some of the traditions I've created or am part of.
Please ask any questions you may have & I wish you an easy pregnancy.

What's New at FFTA?
The Adoption Tax Credit is Partially Refundable!
Due to recent policy changes, the adoption tax credit is refundable up to $5,000. The maximum allowable federal adoption tax credit for 2025 is $17,280. This will hopefully allow more financial flexibility for adoptive families and of course help to reduce the number of children waiting in foster care! Always contact your tax accountant or advisor for more guidance and make sure to save all invoices and expense reports towards your adoption.
