MAKING YOUR DECISION
The decision to place a child for adoption is a serious and life changing one, for both you and your child. You have the responsibility and the right to make a decision that would be in the best interest of your child. By participating in the adoption process, you take control of your child's future, giving them the gift of a loving, stable home that you choose for them.
Our staff is experienced in discussing your concerns and fears with you. Counseling from a licensed therapist is also available.
