Screening and Selecting an Adoptive Family

Selecting a family to adopt your baby is often a stressful time because it is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. However, once you find that perfect family, you will feel a welcome sense of relief that you likely haven’t felt in some time.

Making an Adoption Plan

Modern adoptions allow for a pregnant woman to direct her own adoption plan, which means she is in control of nearly every aspect of the adoption prior to, during and after the placement of the child.

Adoption Costs: Are There Any for Birth Mothers?

When learning of an unplanned pregnancy, some women never consider adoption because they don’t believe they can afford the costs of an adoption.

Adoption Counseling for Pregnant Women

Adoption is a very emotional time for everyone involved, but understandably no more than for the prospective birth mother. Exploring these difficult emotions head on is essential to a healthy pregnancy and a healthy adoption.

  • How much information about the family will be shared with me?

  • How will the family tell my child about me and the adoption when my child is older?

    This is a question that can only be answered by the individual family. Each family has their own style of how to introduce the adoption to the child. When you are matched with your adoptive family, you can ask this question to them. If you would like your Adoption Specialist to discuss it with them for you, just let her know.
