Power Apps Portal Use Case
Adoption Share, a nonprofit organization, wanted to radically change private and public adoption. Specifically, they were looking for a way to leverage cutting edge technologies to better assist children, families, and professionals. After careful review, Adoption Share decided to leverage the Microsoft Power Platform and Power Apps solution to create the Faster Families Power App. Through this new tool, Adoption Share is able to cut down on the bottlenecks in the first steps of the adoption/foster process.
