A Center for Adoption Services is a non-profit adoption agency licensed with the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services. It was founded in 1991.

Dru Martin Groves, M.A., is the Director of A Center for Adoption Services. She is a Certified Counselor with more than 20 years of experience in the field of adoption and works out of her office in Bainbridge Island, Washington.

Dru has worked extensively with adoptive parents and families, birthparents and adoptees. She has a Master's Degree in Psychology, has completed the Foster Care and Adoption Therapy Program at Antioch University, and has special training in special needs and transracial adoptions. Dru also works with clients on post-adoption issues and adoption reunions.

As an adoptee, Dru brings a unique perspective to the adoption process -- one that places the child's best interests first, but acknowledges this is most often accomplished by accommodating needs and wishes of the adoptive parents and birthparents working together.
