Birthparent Connection Program: We can arrange for birthparents to be connected to a young woman who has experienced her own unplanned pregnancy and adoption plan. Our mentors are trained volunteers who want to give back to others experiencing a difficult time and are there to listen, support and share their experience. We also have a similar program where we refer single parents to other experienced single parents for support.

Birthparent Support Groups: Our relationship and our commitment to you do not end after placement. Our pregnancy counselors remain available to help you with feelings of grief and loss that you may experience after placement. Our counselors can also assist you and the adoptive family with any post placement relationship issues that may arise. Many birthparents attend our monthly birth parent support group and find the support needed, particularly in the first year after placement.

Other support services available: childbirth education and continued counseling after the adoption.
