Hello from Southern California! 

We are Rachel Lee and Hedy Kim Lee.  Welcome to the California branch office of Dillon International (click for driving directions & map).  We are thrilled to be a part of the expansion of Dillon International here in Orange County, CA.

Rachel is a Korean-American, married, and the mother of two daughters.  She was raised in Tulsa, OK, and completed most of her education in Texas.  She currently lives in Irvine, CA, working in the field of adoption.

Hedy is a native Californian and an adoptive mother of two amazing children from Korea.  Hedy has been working as an Area Representative for Dillon International for over 5 years.  She and her family are also one of the original 4 families of the ever-growing Orange County Adoptive Families group which has been gathering for over 6 years in the Tustin/Irvine area.  Read Hedy's own remarkable adoption story at ThatsCrispy.com, "Recognizing the Effort to Succeed."

We have many exciting events planned that will offer an opportunity to get acquainted as we launch our California office:

  • international adoption information meetings

  • support and fellowship groups for mothers in-progress of adopting

  • support and fellowship groups for those dealing with infertility

  • support and playgroups for adoptive families

  • fund development and volunteer opportunities

We look forward to meeting you!!  Please contact us in the following ways:
