What
about adoption?
Adoption can be a
healthy choice for some birthparents. Catholic Charities is a child-placing
agency that has been helping to facilitate adoptions for over 80 years. The Crisis Pregnancy/Adoption
Program at Catholic Charities serves birthparents of ALL religions,
races and ethic backgrounds. If you choose to
explore ADOPTION as an option, you will be provided with:
- ENCOURAGEMENT
in selecting and meeting adoptive parents.
- INFORMATION that
governs OPEN and IDENTIFIED adoptions.
- OPPORTUNITY to
receive pictures, letters, and updates after the placement of your child.
- COUNSELING by
experienced social workers that EMPOWERS you to maintain control over
the placement of your child.
- ASSISTANCE with
housing and medical needs.
If adoption becomes
your choice, each and every adoption plan becomes a very personalized
collaboration between birthparents and adoptive parents. Both sets of
parents have one goal in common: to provide a child with the loving,
secure and permanent home she/he deserves. It is important that
a birthparent considering adoption receive COMPLETE AND CORRECT information
on the emotional and legal processes that an adoption plan entails. Counseling
by the adoption workers at Catholic Charities is done with empathy
and neutrality. A counselor can help you to assess ALL your options without
being pressured to choose one option over another.
