Over the past nine years, Maynard and her husband, who live in Chepachet, have fostered nine children. Morsilli and her husband, of Hope, have a total of five children, two of which are adopted.
Maynard has been a NICU nurse at Women & Infants Hospital for 12 years, and Morsilli for nearly 17 years.
Shannon Sullivan, the hospital’s president and chief operating officer, said the hospital is proud of both women.
“Adoptive parents are special people, offering new beginnings to children in need. Both women are a credit to Rhode Island, as well as our nation, and I am thrilled to learn they are both being honored by Congressman Jim Langevin and the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute as 2020 Angels in Adoption,” Sullivan said.
