Choosing life for your child through adoption is the greatest gift you can give. We work with you through this process.
ADOPTIVE PARENTS
Adopting a baby will make a world of difference. Let us show you how we work to match babies and children with parents.
We apologize for the inconvenience, however, we are currently not accepting new applications for Adoptive couples at this time.
SEARCH & REUNION
If you are a birth parent interested in conducting a search for a child placed for adoption, or an adoptee wishing to search for birth parents, we can help.
Adoption is a Blessing
It is not easy to face an unexpected pregnancy. There are so many choices to consider. Think about it and talk about it. Adoption is an option and a blessing!
Adoption is alternative to abortion. In an adoption, a mother gives her child a life. She brings together a new family. And couples who cannot have children have a chance to love and raise children. Birth moms know they are giving a precious life to a family.
Adoption Services of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia connects birth moms with people seeking to adopt a child. We help birth moms through the process. You won’t be alone.
