Help Support AIS-CTC

All About the People

AIS-CTC freely offers our website and other resources to the community. Membership/payment of dues is not required to attend meetings, though AIS-CTC members receive our quarterly newsletter and automatic inclusion in the AIS-CTC reunion database.  We hope those who agree with our values, mission, vision and goals will consider supporting AIS-CTC through your communication with us, monthly meeting support, volunteer efforts, word-of-mouth education and referrals, and financial generosity.

AIS-CTC is an all volunteer organization supported solely by member dues and contributions, which cover costs for meeting space, phones, newsletter publication, and public education/reform efforts. Our membership includes all facets of the adoption triad (adoptive family, birth family, and adoptees), as well as adoption professionals, therapists and those interested in furthering legislative/policy reform. Membership dues are $30 annually.

Who can help by getting involved as volunteers:

  • People of all ages, racial or ethnic backgrounds, marital status, religious affiliation (or lack thereof), triad role, sexual orientation or political persuasion. Everyone is welcome!
    People in need of help with their search and reunion, or just a safe place to listen and learn about relinquishment and adoption-related issues.
  • Past members able to offer help as "search angels," mentors and friendly listeners.
  • Those with newsletter layout, graphic design and publication skills and resources.
  • Those with administrative, accounting, organizational development, marketing, public relations and fundraising skills.
  • Those with expertise and influence in legislation, lobbying, ballot initiatives, and politics.
  • Those passionate about social justice and equal treatment under the law for adoption triad members, and individuals created/affected by donor insemination and surrogacy. We are committed to grass roots activism!
  • Those who may not have extra time to give, but can offer one-time or ongoing monthly, quarterly, or annual financial support in any amount.
