Are you ready to open your home and heart to a child in need of a loving family? The SuperKids Adventure Program gives families the opportunity to welcome a child from Colombia and other countries like Taiwan into their home for 2–3 weeks in the Summer of 2025, offering them the experience of family life while exploring the possibility of adoption.
This program is currently open to families in Florida, Illinois, Missouri, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Utah—states where Gladney has strong support networks.
If you’ve ever considered adoption, this is your chance to take the first step.

During the SuperKids Adventure Program, Gladney’s adoption team learns more about each child so they can help advocate for the right family match.
For some families, this program is a step toward adoption. For others, it’s the first time they realize that adoption is possible for them. Most importantly, it's a child's chance to temporarily experience the US with a loving family.
Why Does This Program Matter for Colombia’s Children?
Without programs like SuperKids, many of these children might never have the chance to connect with potential families. Adoption for older children, sibling groups, and children with medical needs is less common—but these children still need a place to belong.
This program gives them:
- A chance to experience what home feels like
- An opportunity for families to see them as individuals
- The hope that their waiting won’t last forever
For many, this experience shapes their future by opening doors to a permanent, loving family.
What It’s Like to Welcome a Child from Colombia
Families who host a child through SuperKids describe the experience as one of connection, joy, and discovery.
At first, there may be nerves—on both sides. The child may be quiet, unsure, watching to see what happens next.
But then, something shifts.
It’s not about grand gestures. It’s about simple, everyday moments—sharing laughter over a game, baking cookies together, reading a bedtime story—that build trust, comfort, and belonging.

This Summer, a Child from Colombia Will Step Into Your Life—And Everything Could Change
They will arrive carrying years of waiting, hoping, wondering if a family will ever see them. They may be quiet at first, unsure if this time will be different.
Then, they will experience something simple—a walk around the neighborhood, a bedtime story, a moment of kindness that tells them they are safe.
And little by little, they will start to believe.
Not just in the idea of family—but in themselves.
This summer, a child from Colombia will take a step toward their future.
Will you take that step with them?
