❤️ November is National Adoption Month

In honor of National Adoption Month, we invite you to a powerful Impact Screening of Sound of Hope: The Story of Possum Trot. This true story follows 22 families from a small church in East Texas who stepped forward to adopt 77 of the most vulnerable children in their community. It’s a remarkable testament to what happens when ordinary people say “yes” to extraordinary love.

📅 Date: Thursday, November 13, 2025
📍 Location: The Guinn Center 6900 N Nebraska Ave, Tampa, FL 33604
⏰ Doors Open: 6:00 PM

This inspiring evening will feature:

• A moving film screening that brings awareness to the foster care crisis

• Opportunities to learn how you can make a difference through fostering, adoption, or community support

• Light refreshments and community networking. 

• HOAA will raffle adoption services (parent education, home study, and matching services) for one lucky family adopting from foster care!
