Why Northstar

The North Star is the brightest, most fixed, and most visible star in the heavens. Since antiquity, it has been used for navigation across the unknown space of earth and sea. In the mythology of a band of Pawnee Indians, the creator gave the following instructions:  You shall stand in the north. You shall not move; for you shall be the chief of all the gods and you shall watch over them. The Chief Star represented order out of chaos in the affairs of its people.

Here Northstar Consulting Associates represents an available source of assistance for adopted people, regardless of their location, who have experienced a deep void in their origins and identities imposed by an American society, and its state laws, that has never grasped the repercussions of its deeds on the most vulnerable party to adoption.

To adopted people: Northstar affiliates want you to know we are here — you are not lost!
