Adoption can be a challenging decision to make, but it’s also a courageous one. You’ll create an adoption plan and place your child with a loving family of your choosing who has undergone background checks and home studies.
You deserve to make an educated decision that’s free from pressure. Birthright of Greater Westbrook will help you learn about adoption so you can decide whether it’s best for you.
You have choices
You are in control as the birthmother. You can choose the adoptive family that best provides the life you want for your child.
Making an adoption plan is an essential element of the process. Each one offers a different level of communication and privacy. However, no matter which adoption plan you choose, know that placing your child for adoption is a loving and brave decision.
Open Adoption
You can form a relationship with your child and connect with the adoptive family through direct communication, letters, visits, and more. Your child will understand the role you play in their life.
Semi-Open Adoption
You will communicate with the child and adoptive family through a state licensed adoption agency.
Closed Adoption
You will remain anonymous and won’t have contact with the adoptive family. All identifying records are sealed.
Help at every step
When you create an adoption plan, you’ll receive assistance at every step of the process.
As the birthmother, you won’t pay for any adoption or medical expenses. Adoption can be emotionally difficult, and we can help you find support.
