Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange (MARE) is a private nonprofit that bridges the gap between a beleaguered foster care system and the right of every child to a permanent, stable family.
We exist to help find adoptive homes for the hundreds of children and teens in Massachusetts foster care in need of permanent families.
We believe in a future where every child has the permanent family they deserve. But to make that dream a reality, it's going to take a wide community of supporters, families, do-gooders, and change-makers. Will you join us?

Throughout the year, MARE hosts events statewide to connect and support social workers, waiting children and prospective adoptive families. To subscribe to our events newsletter, please create an account.
We believe strongly in an open and inclusive process as you explore adoption. Any type of family or individual can consider adoption and we are here to help you every step of the way - no matter your race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, or background. You are welcome here!
There are many ways you can help kids in foster care, even if you can't adopt (or already have!). Sign up below to get involved and receive our newsletter.
