Port Angeles woman wins national award for work benefiting traumatized children [peninsuladailynews.com]

 

Congratulations to ACN Member Tiffany Sudela-Junker of Port Angeles in receiving one of the 2017 Angels in Adoption awards honoring individuals whose work in adoption or foster care has made a national impact.

From the subject line, the email appeared to be soliciting donations.

Then, Tiffany Sudela-Junker of Port Angeles received another with the same heading and thought, “I should probably open this.”

One click revealed a message from the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute in Washington, D.C., and Sen. Patty Murray’s office informing Sudela-Junker that she had received one of the 2017 Angels in Adoption awards honoring individuals whose work in adoption or foster care has made a national impact.

“I was totally shocked,” she said.
