Our goal is to support and empower them to make decisions about parenting. If they choose abortion or parenting, we will provide helpful information and referral sources. All of our services are free of charge to birthparents. Ongoing Counseling Birthparents receive ongoing counseling and support before, during and after placement.
Clients continue to meet with a counselor for as long as necessary.
Monthly Support Groups Birthparents are encouraged to attend regular support groups where they have the opportunity to meet others who are considering adoption, or have already placed their child. Financial Assistance Birthparents receive financial assistance for medical and pregnancy-related living expenses. Select Adoptive Parents Birthparents have the opportunity to choose adoptive parents from a carefully screened pool of 30 to 40 prospective adoptive parents. Birthparents receive a copy of the adoptive families' home studies and autobiographies. Together adoptive and birth families create a contract that entitles birthparents to ongoing contact, including visits and exchange of letters and photos.
