Mississippi Children's Home Society
From: "Miller, Nancy" msmiller@bellsouth.net
My name is Nancy Knight Miller and I am the adoption director for the
Mississippi Children's Home Society. Our program offers a variety of
post-adoption services - as our agency began doing adoptions in 1912.
Thus, we have a variety of clients with very different post-adoption
needs and issues. Always looking for innovative ways to engage
individuals in the process.
