Your Decision. Your Child. Your Future.

Every situation is different. Our role is not to make a decision for you, but to make sure you have care, information, and resources as you consider what is right for you and your child.

Our team will listen to your questions and walk alongside you without pressure as you decide what comes next.

Explore Your Options

You don't have to have everything figured out before you reach out. Our team will listen, talk through your options with you, and connect you with care and resources based on what you and your child need.

If you are considering adoption, we can answer your questions and talk with you about what adoption could look like for you and your child.

Exploring adoption does not mean you have decided to choose adoption.

If You Choose Adoption

If you decide adoption is right for you and your child, you choose the family you believe is right for your baby.

Our team will help you get to know approved Connected Waiting Families and talk with you about what matters to you as you choose a family. We'll also talk with you about your preferences for openness and ongoing connection.

The decisions about your child and your adoption plan remain yours throughout the process.
