Recognizing the Hoffmann Family as 2009 Angels in Adoption

public

The Hoffman’s first adoption was in 1998 when they adopted Kevan, age 3. In 2001 they added Corly, age 8 and Dean, age 10 (biological half siblings). In 2002 they adopted Skylar who was just 10 months old. 

In 2007 they discovered Kevan’s half siblings SueAnn, age 18, and Thomas, age 16 were available for adoption. Although SueAnn was 18, she was still in high school and wanted a permanent family. 

In 2008 they had 2 foster sons they helped reunify with their mother. Now their mother, her husband, and both boys, along with their new baby brother are considered part of the Hoffman family. 

Also in 2008, the Hoffman's were reunited with Crystal, a young lady who had lived with them as a teenager prior to her entering foster care and subsequently aging out. 

Although Crystal was not legally adopted, the Hoffman's consider her another daughter. 

In 2009 they adopted,Caryann age 6. Just when they thought their family was complete, a woman in their church asked them to adopt the twins she expects to deliver in October. Her observations of their parenting, lead this mother to believe they would be the perfect family for her twins. 

In addition to all they have done directly to help children have a permanent family, in 2007 they began a ministry, Project Belong, through their church encouraging others to adopt children from foster care.
