Adopt-A-Box

🕊️ Help Families Find Calm and Connection with Adopt-A-Box

A comforting resource for adoptive families, inspired by The Primal Wound by Nancy Newton Verrier.

💛 Our Story

Adopt-A-Box was founded by Anna Drummond to help families navigate both the joys and challenges of adoption. Inspired by the work of Nancy Newton Verrier, author of The Primal Wound, our mission is rooted in empathy and understanding. Anna has also had a lifelong dream to find ways to respond to that brokenness of biological mother and child and how that impacts the family dynamic for them post adoption. 

Many adoptees—no matter when or how they joined their family—wrestle with identity and belonging. During those moments of uncertainty or emotional overwhelm, families often need tools for gentle de-escalation and meaningful reconnection.

That’s where Adopt-A-Box comes in.

Each box is thoughtfully curated to help families slow down, breathe, and reconnect. Inside, you’ll find:

🧸 A soft stuffed animal for comfort and security
📖 A thoughtful book that opens doors to conversation and healing
🌈 Sensory stickers and fidgets for emotional regulation
💬 Conversation cards that spark understanding and connection

Our hope is that Adopt-A-Box becomes more than just a kit — it’s a bridge to healing, calm, and deeper family connection.
