Daniel Stevens, L.M.S.W. – Adoption Social Worker/Executive Director

In May of 2017 I graduated with a Master in Social Work from Western New Mexico University.  In 2004 I graduated with a bachelor in Political Science with a Concentration in Law and Justice from SUNY Cortland.  Family Connections has been an integral part of my life since I was nine years old.  Having an adoption agency founder as a mother has placed adoption social work as a foundation to my personality.  While attending SUNY Cortland, I helped as an administrative assistant at Family Connections for two years before graduating.  Before returning to Family Connections I have had other life experiences that have directed my path back to Social Work.  I have three biological children. I am really excited to expand services at Family Connections to include individual family counseling services focused on adoption support in the near future. Please do not hesitate to contact me at Family Connections.
