Help an adoptive family find hope and healing.

Your support ensures each adoptive family in Lancaster has the resources they need to thrive.

 

✵ Advocate for children

✵ support your community

✵ build happy families

 
 

A community is only as strong as its families.

Adoptive families want to create a healthy, empowering, joyful home for their child.

But because of the complex and difficult nature of adoption, adoptive families are on a more complicated journey than other families. They often don’t have the support or resources they need.

At Joy Renewed, we're here to uplift these families and support them as a community.

With the support of generous donors just like you, we help families find healing for the present and hope for the future with Life Groups, Whole Family Coaching, and Parent Training.

Take a stand for families in our community.

  • Help families stay connected.

    When parents and children understand each other, families can trade "hurting" moments for healing moments.

  • Connect families with resources they need.

    Adoptive families need a little extra support to keep them going. You can help us continue to provide community and coaching for them.

  • Protect families and children.

    Nontraditional parenting isn't meant to be done alone. Get the community, support, and resources you need to thrive.

 

Let’s care for adoptive families together.


 

“I deeply understand where parents and their adopted children are coming from, because I’ve seen both sides of adoption. I’ve worked with families whose children were on the edge of foster care, and I’ve raised a family of five children - three of them adopted.

I believe every child and parent deserves to thrive. Families shouldn't get left behind just because they're on a more complex journey than others.

That's why I started Joy Renewed - to help guide adoptive families through the everyday struggles of family life.

With support from generous donors, agencies, and foundations, we can keep our services affordable for every family in Lancaster.”

- Jeanette Nafziger | Founder, Joy Renewed

Sponsor a family. Show love to a child.

At Joy Renewed, we believe a community is only as strong as its families. We will only win as a community when every family is thriving.

The problem is, adoptive parents in our community don’t have the resources they need to deal with the complexity and uncertainty of adoption. So they struggle to create a safe, healthy environment for their adopted children, and their family becomes more and more disconnected.

We help these families find healing for the past and hope for the future with Life Groups, Whole Family Coaching, and Parent Training.

In order to make support accessible to every family, we need the strength of generous individuals, families, agencies, community foundations, and churches to support adoptive families and ensure each one has the resources they need to thrive. When you sponsor a family, it's like you come alongside them and walk their journey together as they work towards a healthy, happy family.
