SCARSDALE, NY — Our Small Business Spotlight shines a light on local businesses we may not know that well.

• Business: Lisa Goldberg Adoptions
• Owner: Lisa Peck Goldberg
• Website: BuildingNYFamilies.com
• Address: 26 Broadmoor Rd., Scarsdale

Why start a business in this town? I used to be a narcotics and securities fraud prosecutor, then took some time off to raise our children. I spent a lot of years volunteering in our town and schools and wanted to go back to work in a way where I could make a difference in the lives of children and families. What better way to make a difference than to help babies and children find permanent, loving homes and help Westchester residents grow their families through adoption!

What business are you in? I help people create families through adoption!

What’s the most difficult challenge you’ve faced as a business owner? Staying on top of the accounting and business side of a law firm.

What’s been your proudest achievement since opening? Being a part of hundreds of wonderful adoptions!

How does your business give back to the community? I do pro bono work for families in need and will not charge veterans for adoption services.
