Celebrate National Adoption Awareness Month - 30 days of ideas to help promote adoption.

How do I find a good agency?

The agency you select will depend on the type of adoption you are pursuing (domestic, international, etc.) and other details specific to your family’s adoption plans which may includeyour age, faith, marital status, costs, etc.

Researching an agency is an important step in the process and includes asking questions, talking with references, and gathering other information. The ultimate decision of what constitutes a "good" agency will certainly include qualities like "ethical," "forthcoming with information," and others, but much will rely on your level of comfort with the professionals who will be working for you.
