A Brief History

Adoption Covenant was founded by Merinda K. Condra who is herself an adoptive parent. Merinda, an attorney, formed Adoption Covenant after encountering unnecessary delays and complications in her own attempt to adopt a child.

Adoption Covenant is a full service adoption agency for both international and domestic adoption and can provide most services nationwide.
