Thank you, Nelson Family!
Since the inception of the Touched by Adoption celebration in 2019, we have been humbled to have the encouragement and support of Green Bay Packer Alum Jordy Nelson and Emily Nelson.
Without hesitation, they have supported our vision and goals to uplift adoptive families, birthparents and the broader community.
Adoption Choice, Inc. had the honor to walk with them as they grew their family through adoption, and they have generously chosen to walk with us on our development path in the present and future. We welcome their support for Touched By Adoption 2025!
