Don and Belen talk about becoming a father on purpose
Last Sunday, fathers around the country celebrated with their families, including JIT CEO Don Wells and his adopted daughter Belen. Belen and Don have been in each other’s lives since Belen was 8 years old. Three years into their relationship, while Don and Belen were watching Shrek, Belen turned to Don and asked him “Why are you still here?”
Don knew that no child should ever have to ask that question of a caring adult in their life.
Belen is a Just in Time alumni and now serves as a lived-experience mentor to participants within the community.
She was adopted by Don Wells and his wife, JIT co-founder Diane Cox in 2022.
