Diana Vandra

Adoption Outreach & Education Coordinator

As an adoptive mom herself, Diana loves working with birth mothers and adoptive families. She began working at Lifetime in 2009 and believes helping birth mothers and families connect is an amazing privilege.

Diana offers free adoption training for social workers, pregnancy centers, hospital staff, and more! These trainings are offered in the form of live webinars that can be accessed by employees at a later date. Diana’s hope is that by providing adoption training for social workers and others, there will be a shift in the way that pregnant women think about adoption. She wants people to understand that adoption is a wonderful and generous gift from the birth parents to the adoptive family and is not a choice that should bring about shame.

Having three kids, Diana finds her time outside of work filled with her kid’s sporting events. She loves cheering for her kids and their teams. Diana also enjoys camping and geocaching with her family.
