About Us
Because we work throughout BC and it's not always
practical for you to make trips in to the agency, we spend a lot of time on the
phone with you. For this reason, we think
it's
important to include pictures and short descriptions of who we are so that you
know who you're talking to.

Jennifer Wall, MSW RSW
Jennifer
is our Administrator of Adoption Services. Jennifer spends most of her
time on the phone with families throughout BC and answering questions through
email, but she enjoys meeting you in person whenever possible! Jennifer has
worked with our agency for the last several years and has gained experience
in all aspects of adoption. Prior to this, she worked in the field of
adoption with the Ministry of Children and Family Development for several
years. She facilitates Adoptive Parent Education Programs for the
Ministry. In her “spare” time, she enjoys scrapbooking, writing, genealogy,
and travel.
