The Adoption Medicine Clinic, University of Minnesota

11/20/2025

The AMC is the only clinic in the nation where children are seen by a pediatrician, clinical child psychologist, occupational therapist and dental hygienist who specializes in foster and adoption medicine. This specialized, multidisciplinary team allows for greater accuracy in connecting families with early intervention supports, setting children up to thrive.

With your support on Give to the Max Day, our Patient-Family Support Fund will continue providing assistance for children needing care at the AMC. You will open up doors for families across the nation to be seen by our team, who otherwise would not be able to access care to due to financial barriers.

Join us today to help us reach our goal of raising $1,500! Your generosity today will impact a child for a lifetime!

DCYF's child safety and permanency programs help ensure children grow up in safe, stable, and supportive homes. We support families through adoption and kinship care with financial assistance, training, and access to counseling resources. This work is focused on strengthening families, securing permanent homes for children and youth, and preventing maltreatment.

Counties and Tribes deliver most of these services directly, while DCYF provides oversight, guidance, and resources to help keep children safe and families together whenever possible.
