Adoption Services offers a continuum of options for both birth and adoptive families. Working closely with clients served by Catholic Charities' Prenatal Services program, Adoption Services offers counseling and information to expectant mothers considering placing their babies for adoption.
The program provides services — including education, counseling, support, supervision, certification of adoption — to families to facilitate the adoption process. Post-adoption services are provided to adoptive adults and birth parents whose placement was through Catholic Charities.
