What is the Coalition for Adoption Rights Equality, Inc.?

Mission Statement

The Coalition for Adoption Rights Equality, Inc. (CARE) is a children's advocacy group working to secure the legal recognition of parent-child relationships in all families regardless of the parents' marital status or sexual orientation.

CARE's primary objectives are to:

  1. Educate potentially supportive groups across Michigan and nationwide regarding how second parent adoption is in the best interests of children.

  2. Build coalitions, including developing other CARE affiliates across the state that will provide a rapid response to fight potential legislative bans on adoptions by unmarried heterosexual parents and gay/lesbian parents.

Non-Discrimination Statement

CARE is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination and equal opportunity for all persons regardless of race, sex, color, religion, creed, national origin or ancestry, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.
