Introductions

If you are an adoptive family visiting the NM FIESTA project, please take a moment to comment on this post and introduce yourself. Please refer to your children by nicknames or initials to protect their privacy. We want this blog to be a place for adoptive families to connect with each other, gain support and encouragement and maybe even learn a little bit.

We are working hard to review resumes, hire Family Contacts in each region and get started on providing support groups, family activities and training all over New Mexico.

Looking forward to meeting you,
Megan & FIESTA staff

Hi everyone,
I wanted to also introduce myself. I am Erika Aceto-Tode and one of the FIESTA staff. I hope to meet all of you as our project takes shape. I have worked as an adoption Coordinator at La Familia, Inc. for 9 years and my husband and I have adopted a beautiful baby named Jayden. I will be happy to share my adoption story with anyone who is interested as Jayden and I help facilitate and participate in all the fun family activities that are being scheduled.
