Family Spotlight: Meet the Rodriguez Family

Alex and Jennifer Rodriguez describe their ever-growing family in one word: blessed. While they currently have nine children, they admit that they would adopt more if they were allowed to. When they first talked to their children regarding the opportunities and the potential challenges of expanding their family through adoption, their four children: Brandon, Alexis, Caitlin, and Sarah were excited. When their son Brandon was in high school, he told his parents about a kid he had befriended who was in need of a place to stay. The Rodriguezes welcomed Steven into their home, and they have been like family ever since. Although they didn’t know anyone who had ever embarked on the journey they were setting out on, they were up for the challenge!

The Rodriguez Family resides in Colorado, and their story was sponsored by Representative Cory Gardner.
