Lyn Briscoe, B.A.E.

Virginia Home Study Coordinator

After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Education, Lyn spent 6 years teaching English to at-risk middle schoolers. She then got a job at a ropes course facility, where she helped develop a drug prevention program to take into the schools. Eventually, she transitioned to the field of Christian camping, where she facilitated backpacking therapy trips for troubled youth, led adventure trips for foster kids and church youth groups, and finally became the Outdoor Education Director at a camp in Colorado where she met her husband.

Lyn and her husband have five children, three of whom were adopted from China through America World. Not long after their last adoption, Lyn received an unexpected blessing when her social worker called to ask her if she was interested in applying for his job when he retired. She is currently serving as the Social Services Coordinator for the Virginia office and continues to work as a home study coordinator.

Lyn is grateful for the opportunity to walk her families through the adoption process and meet their beautiful children once they come home. When not working or homeschooling her kids, she enjoys reading, teaching Bible studies, and playing with her grandson.
