Adoption for Professionals

As a leading national adoption agency, American Adoptions completes hundreds of adoption placements each year. We work alongside hospital staff, state agencies, community social workers, attorneys and dozens of other professionals on a daily basis to support women and families through this process.

As such, we often receive questions from these professionals about adoption: how it works today, the choices prospective birth parents have when considering adoption, the resources that are available, and more. In the articles below, we’ve provided answers to many of these questions, as well as guidelines for professionals to best serve and support prospective birth parents and adoptive families.

If you need to speak with someone about an adoption plan for one of your patients or clients, you can call us any time at 1-800-ADOPTION to speak with a licensed social worker who specializes in adoption. We are always happy to answer any questions and support you and your clients in whatever way we can.
