To our community of Minnesota adoptive, foster and kinship families and the professionals who serve them:
The MN ADOPT HELP Program continues its commitment and availability to you during this time that we are all affected by the COVID 19 social distancing measures, school closures and disruptions to normal routines.
We encourage you to continue to reach out for the support your family needs.
Our staff are all working from home during this period. When calling the HELP warmline (612-746-5137), or the individual HELP Specialist who has been assisting you, you must leave a voicemail message to ensure that our team hears your need as we will not be able to answer direct calls at this time. You can also email our HELP Program at HELP-program@mnadopt.org or the individual HELP Specialist. In any message, please leave your phone number and your email address as this will help us connect to you more efficiently. We will be back in touch as soon as possible with a goal of responding within 48 hours Monday – Friday.
For immediate danger/safety needs:
- please call 911 and ask for a Crisis Intervention officer
- or go to your local emergency room.
For 24 hour Crisis Response – please call your county’s Crisis Response number.
