How We Can Help You
|
Custom adoption plans:
The most important part of adoption is having a plan. There are many options in adoption today that can help you with the reality of knowing that someone else will be raising your child. Since 1983, Adoptions Unlimited Inc. has been working with birth mothers. The staff at Adoptions Unlimited, Inc. can assist you in making a plan that fits best for you and your baby. Placing your baby for adoption will probably be the most difficult thing you will ever do. Having a customized plan to reflect what you want will make it a little easier to do what you feel is best for your baby.
Financial Assistance :
Most states will allow adoptive parents to assist a birth mother with pregnancy related living expenses. A coordinator will discuss with you what your expenses are and how you are currently covering them. The coordinator will then develop a new budget to reflect how the adoptive parents might be able to assist you in meeting your financial needs. All expenses must be pregnancy related, necessary living expenses and cannot be anything of value. The law is structured in this way so you are never put in a position of being coerced or enticed to place your child for adoption. You must first do what is best for your child and then receive the assistance you need if you need it. Let us assist you in getting the things you need to take good care of yourself.
Counseling:
Adoptions Unlimited Inc. offers three plans for counseling. You may choose to be counseled by one of our social workers at no cost to you, you may choose to select your own support counselor and have the cost of those sessions covered by the adoptive parents or you may want us to help you find counseling in your area where the cost is based on your income. Your adoption coordinator will assist you in whichever plan fits you the best. We highly encourage you to select a plan for counseling. Facing an unplanned pregnancy and placing your child for adoption is a difficult thing to go through and you need help working through all of the emotions that go along with it.
Excellent families for your child :
Most of the staff at Adoptions Unlimited Inc. has been personally touched by adoption. For that reason we take the utmost care in selecting the families we work with. We use the highest standards in our selection process so you can be assured that your child has the best possible family. We select only families that have a deep respect and understanding of what birth parents must sacrifice in order to give their child a wonderful life.
Post Placement Service :
After you place your baby with a family we will assist you in ongoing communication between you and the adoptive parents if that was part of your adoption plan. We will assist you by keeping accurate records of any contact from you or the adoptive parents regarding your child. If you ever want to know how your child is doing you can always contact the agency to get an update. If we have information on your child we will share it with you. If we do not, we will contact the adoptive parents to see if we can get an update for you.
Medical Assistance:
Adoptions Unlimited Inc. will assist you with finding a doctor you can be comfortable with if you do not already have one. An adoption coordinator can accompany you to the doctor and be present during labor and delivery if you would like that. |
