Tammy Petersen is a Licensed Social Worker who provides Pregnancy, Parenting, and Adoption Services in the Winona Area. Tammy received a degree in Social Work from Winona State University. Tammy has had an interest in adoption services for a number of years. Tammy has friends whom have been adopted, whom have experienced an unplanned pregnancy, and has a friend who has placed their child for adoption. Tammy works with birthparents to determine what is right for their child. Tammy will help birthparents create either a parenting plan or an adoption plan. At times birthparents are not the only ones affected by the unplanned pregnancy; therefore, Tammy welcomes their families as well.

Tammy also helps prospective adoptive couples in determining which adoption plan is right for them. Tammy works with the family to create a home study which is required by the state of Minnesota. Tammy helps the couple prepare for a child by educating them on adoption related topics, and also assists them while they wait to adopt their child.
