Building Arizona Families has a unique story. The love of two mothers’ created this Arizona adoption agency from two mothers’ love. One founder and her husband, Angie and Scott Penrose, have three adopted children to whom they opened their hearts and homes. The other founder, Kelly Rourke-Scarry, was adopted herself. Other members of the staff working at Building Arizona Families have adopted children as well. For this adoption agency, finding forever families for children is deeply personal.

Be open and be honest with that’s important to you and how you feel and what you’re looking for and expect the same respect back to you.” – Adoptive Mother
