ADOPTION: FAQ

Q: What is an “open” adoption?
A: An open adoption involves an agreement between a child’s adoptive family and birth family that says that the two families will keep in touch. In other words, open adoption allows for birth parents to contact the child they gave birth to through letters, pictures, and visits with the child and his family.

Q: Are adoptions permanent?
A: Yes. Once placed, the child becomes permanently and legally a member of the adoptive family with full rights to inheritance and a lifetime family relationship.

Q: Do you give referrals to adoption agencies?
A: Yes we do. There are several agencies to which we can refer you. Please contact us for more information.
