We like this Seattle Times story on Liam Kaplan, a two-year disabled Vietnamese boy who was adopted by Redmond, WA hospice/social worker and adoption counselor Nancy Kaplan. The article discusses how the Kindering Center in Bellvue is helping Liam thrive in his new home. It also demonstrates how social workers such as Nancy Kaplan practice in real life what they preach.
