Domestic Infant Adoption
Our Christian Adoption Agency has helped over 2,500 families with infant domestic adoption. Your adoption helps give peace of mind to the placing parent by providing a loving safe home for their child. We guide families through legal processes, birth parent counseling, and post-adoption support while maintaining open communication between all parties.
Snowflakes Embryo Adoption
Pioneered in 1997, this unique program allows families to experience pregnancy while giving adopted embryos the chance at life. We connect donors with recipients, facilitate legal agreements, and provide medical coordination with fertility clinics. This service combines adoption and pregnancy for families seeking both biological and adoptive connections.
International Adoption
We help families adopt children from countries worldwide, with expertise in navigating complex international regulations. Our services include eligibility assessments, document preparation, in-country coordination, and cultural transition support. We maintain partnerships with overseas agencies to ensure ethical practices and successful placements for waiting children.
Foster Care Services
We provide comprehensive support for becoming foster parents, including state-certified training, home study evaluations, and ongoing case management. Our advocates help families navigate the foster system, offer trauma-informed parenting strategies, and organize support networks for foster children and their caregivers.
Post-Adoption Support
We offer lifelong support including free counseling services, family updates until age 18, and relationship mediation between birth and adoptive families. Our team provides resources for adoptee identity development, birth parent closure, and maintaining open adoption agreements through all life stages.
