Administrative Assistant, Senior Level Organization Info Pact, an adoption alliance OverviewHeadquarters: Emeryville, CAWebsite: pactadopt.orgAnnual Budget : $1-5MSize: 1-10 employeesFounded: 1991 About UsAreas of Focus: EducationYouth / ChildrenMission: Pact is a non-profit organization whose mission is to serve adopted children of color. In every case, the child is always our primary client. In order to best serve children's needs, we provide not only adoptive placement but lifelong education, support, and community for adoptees and their families on issues of adoption and race. Our goal is for every child to feel wanted honored and loved, a cherished member of a strong family with proud connections to the rich cultural heritage that is his or her birthright. Programs: Education and support are as essential as food, water, and love to the long-term health and success of all adopted people and their families. Adoption and race are complicated in a world where most people are raised by the parents that gave birth to them, and where people of color still struggle for equity and justice. At Pact, we know we must speak honestly and openly about the realities of racism, and the challenges that children and youth of color face in our not-so-colorblind society. We know that when we talk about the complex truths of adoption with honesty and courage, we create opportunities for families to become closer and stronger, and for children to feel more comfortable in their full identity – which always includes at least two families. We do this through webinars, conferences, 2 annual camps and multiple support groups. Read more about Pact, an adoption alliance Read more about Administrative Assistant, Senior Level
