Until the legal documents are signed, which typically occurs two days after the child's birth, the birth mother remains the child's legal parent. If you are working with a licensed agency that performs your adoption properly and ethically, the relinquishment becomes irrevocable once the legal paperwork is signed. A reputable agency will thoroughly explain the process and not pressure the birth mother regarding placement. Their job is encouraging her to do what she feels is best for her and her child.

It costs an expectant mother nothing to place her child for adoption.

As a licensed agency, we can assist our expectant mothers financially. Licensing allows us to help with rent, groceries, utilities, phone, and transportation. We have the resources to help once a match with the adoptive family you choose is made. We can also assist you with applying for other assistance, like Medicaid and other helpful resources that will be highly beneficial during your pregnancy.

Yes! We will help you find a compassionate licensed OBGYN near you who will give you the attention you need and deserve!

We ask adoptive couples to send pictures and updates for 18 years so you can see your child is thriving and happy. Face-to-face meetings are still an option as long as they do not negatively affect the adoptee.

Yes, we have a support group that meets every 4-6 weeks, as requested by the members.

Abiding Love Charities grant program was founded to fill gaps in need for birth moms so that they can take steps toward healing, continue their education, or provide financial help during an emergency.

Bravelove is another excellent resource for birth mothers. It is a pro-adoption movement dedicated to changing the perception of adoption by acknowledging birth moms for their brave decisions. Their website has pre- and post-adoption help, personal stories, resources for professionals, and much more!

Yes, each birth parent makes an adoption plan with their counselor, so your needs and requests are made known and, therefore, can be achieved.

You are free to change your mind at any time until documents are signed terminating your parental rights.

It is never too late to choose to make an adoption plan for your child. Parenting can be overwhelming, especially when doing it alone. Maybe a parent or friend said, “I’ll be there for you.” And you now realize that isn’t going to happen. Or, the baby’s father said he would help you financially, but he’s nowhere to be found. Circumstances change. It doesn’t matter if you are still in the hospital or already home. It’s never too late to change plans. You are in control.
