National Council for Adoption

The mission of the National Council of the Gladney Family Association is to serve as a communication tool for Family Association officers.

The National Council is organized to assist in areas of communication between The Gladney Family Association, The Gladney Center and the Gladney Board of Directors.  The purpose of this communication will be to help The Gladney Family Association fulfill their objectives of member support, outreach and fund raising.

“The National Council offers GFA officers and members a group of experienced mentors in key areas to enhance the overall GFA experience. The National Council provides guidance to GFA leadership as well as being a liaison between the center and the GFAs.” Sharon Haynes, Dallas GFA Lifetime Member

“The National Council plays a vital role in supporting the GFAs, but equally important is the "voice" that the National Council gives to the GFAs. As president of the National Council, I sit on the Gladney center board as a representative of ALL GFA members. I look forward to sharing the important happenings and issues facing the GFAs!” Sharon Haynes, Dallas GFA Lifetime Member

“The National Council strives to be accessible to all GFA families, to provide regular and relevant communication to GFA Leadership and to make a positive impact on GFA membership, fundraising, participation and leadership.” Wendy Lee, Director of Volunteers-The Gladney Family Association Network
