Considering Adoption?

Adoption is one option for your unplanned pregnancy, offering opportunities to shape your child’s future.

Though it can be emotionally challenging to place your child in another family, adoption can also provide peace of mind. Knowing your child is being cared for while you have the ability to pursue your goals can offer that reassurance.

If you’re considering adoption, learning what plans are available is essential. We’ll walk you through the available plans and what to expect.

Open Adoption

With an open adoption, you can select the adoptive parents and form a relationship with them. You can also communicate with your child and the family through letters, phone calls, visits, and more.

Semi-Open Adoption

Semi-open adoption involves a limited exchange of information, like first names, and communication occurs through a third party (like an adoption attorney or agency).

Closed Adoption

Closed adoption offers the most privacy, with all identifying records sealed. You and the adoptive family do not contact each other.

While this plan isn’t common, it may be ideal if you have safety concerns or other extenuating circumstances.

Only you can decide what’s best for your future. The adoption process considers your wishes and preferences, ensuring your comfort and well-being.

No one can pressure you to make a decision you’re uncomfortable with, and it’s crucial you get all the facts before deciding. We’ll offer the no-cost options information you deserve.

Making Your Decision

Meeting with an adoption agency is crucial to learning more about this option. They can discuss the support available, which includes coverage of medical and adoption expenses and possible material assistance, among other resources.
