We understand that choosing adoption is a difficult decision. We NEVER refer to this decision as “giving your baby up for adoption;” Rather, we know that you are choosing adoption for your baby because you love them and want a life for them that you do not feel you can currently provide. It may also be that you just do not desire to be a parent at this time. Whatever the reason, we admire your courage and are here to help.

We promise that our waiting adoptive families are ready to provide a child with a safe and stable home and a life full of love and opportunities.

Our agency provides dedicated support for women experiencing unplanned pregnancies and who live in Mobile or Baldwin County, Alabama. We feel strongly about connecting with and meeting the needs of our expectant mothers. Providing this level of care limits us geographically.

We understand the overwhelming amount of questions, thoughts, and worries that can accompany an unplanned pregnancy. Our team is committed to supporting our birth mothers through every step of the adoption journey, including the time following birth.

You may not have planned to be where you are now.
But you can still plan for a beautiful future.

Why Consider Adoption?

Every woman is unique and many circumstances can contribute to an adoption decision. Below are some of the more common reasons a birth mother may choose to place a child for adoption:

  • Financial Abilities — Can you afford to provide for yourself and a baby?

  • Lack of Support System — Are there people in your life who can help you raise a child?

  • Two-Parent Household — If the birth father is not involved, would you prefer your child to have a two-parent family?

  • Career & Education Goals — Are you still in school? Will your career or job allow the time and flexibility needed to parent?

  • Age & Inexperience — Parenting is a lifelong commitment. Are you emotionally and physically ready to parent?

  • Safety — Sometimes victims of domestic/sexual violence would like to place their baby with an adoptive family for theirs &/or the baby’s safety.

  • Legal Reasons — If you have had children removed from your custody in the past &/or have had parental rights terminated, you may wish to choose an adoptive family for your baby rather than have your baby put into foster care.

Answers to common questions

Who chooses the adoptive family?

You will! You share your preferences with us (single parent or married couple, has other children or doesn’t have children yet, etc.) and we will show you profile books of the families matching your preferences that have been approved and are ready to adopt. Once you have selected a family, you decide if you would like to meet them or not.

will placing my child for adoption cost me anything?

No, there is absolutely no cost to you. Although we may try to use any health insurance/government assistance you have to keep the cost down for the adoptive parents, they are prepared to cover everything.

Will i receive any financial assistance during my pregnancy?

Yes, in addition to providing for any adoption-related legal fees, adoptive parents provide for medical bills that are not covered by insurance or public aid. Often, reasonable pregnancy-related expenses and transportation to and from appointments is also covered. They will also help compensate for a maternity leave if you are not granted one by your employer.

Absolutely! This is an important decision, and we will be completely transparent with you. We want everyone involved to be as informed as possible, at each step along the way. By contacting our domestic adoption coordinator, you are not committing to anything.
