Help with finances and medical expenses
Finances can have a major impact on your decision when considering your pregnancy options. Most women have worries about resources and costs when they learn they are pregnant. Will you still be able to work through your pregnancy? If you choose adoption, what will it cost you? How will the medical bills be covered? These are questions we hear every day from women who are exploring adoption and we understand how important these questions are. An Adoption Specialist will work with you to figure out solutions for your personal situation to ensure you are taken care of during your pregnancy. In many cases, American Adoptions can ensure you have the help you need to cover costs of your medical bills and living expenses.
What if I can’t work during my pregnancy or do not make enough money to cover all of my bills? Can I receive help financially for things such as rent and utilities?
Most women who create an adoption plan can receive some assistance with expenses during their pregnancy. Every state has unique laws but in most states, adoptive parents are able to provide financial assistance to you for living expenses such as rent, utilities, food, transportation and maternity clothes. If you are currently living at home or in any residence you can no longer continue to reside in due to your pregnancy, American Adoptions can help you locate alternative housing options as well. If you need help with living expenses, you should talk with your Adoption Specialist about your situation. Our Adoption Specialists are knowledgeable about how the living expenses are approved in each state and are able to help locate other helpful resources. If you are not yet working with an Adoption Specialist, please contact 1-800-ADOPTION (236-7846) and someone can help answer your questions.
