We accept both single and married applicants. If married, there is a two year minimum marriage requirement. Flexibility as related to adoption issues such as ethnicity, health history and open adoption. Emotional and financial stability. Adoption Advocates offers two fee programs so that you can choose a plan that best fits your needs.
All fees are payable in monthly increments.
Depending on the fee program you choose, services may include administrative costs, professional staff time, counseling, living expenses for birthparents, adoption educational programs for prospective adoptive parents, legal fees, preparation of interstate compact documents and post adoption supportive services. Also covered is our extensive outreach program to educate birthparents about the choices available in an adoption plan. Details about our different programs will be forwarded to you in our inquiry packet. About half of our placements are fully disclosed adoptions. In a fully disclosed adoption birthparents and adoptive parents exchange names, addresses, and phone numbers.
