Rebecca Gruenspan
FOUNDER AND CEO
Rebecca, known to most as Becca, established RG Adoption Consulting in 2013. After living in Chicago for 22 years, Becca and her son returned to her hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, where they soon welcomed their Goldendoodle, Akela into their family. Embracing motherhood has been a lifelong calling for Becca, but her journey took unexpected turns. Despite grappling with infertility and misconceptions about adoption, Becca sought out an adoption consultant to help guide her journey. Since 2011, when Becca adopted her son as a single mom, she embarked on a path of cultural understanding and integration, recognizing the importance of incorporating her son's Mexican heritage into their family's fabric. Valentine's Day holds a special significance as that is the day her son's adoption was finalized, marking the beginning of their “family day” together. Becca received a Bachelor of Science in Social Work (BSSW) at The Ohio State University and a Masters in Social Work (MSW) at The University of Illinois at Chicago, Jane Addams School of Social Work.
