  • "Meredith is an innovative and visionary leader at the intersection of adoption and trauma informed care. Her vision for James Trail includes connecting adoptive and foster families with needed encouragement, education, resources and, most importantly, each other. She and James Trail are stepping into a crucial gap, ensuring these caregivers have the community they need to thrive."
