Who Can Help Me Find Adoptive Families in Delaware?

It’s not all up to you during the adoption process. You will choose an adoption professional to work with, and that professional will guide you through every step to complete a successful adoption. In some states, you can work with a type of professional known as an “adoption facilitator.” These are unlicensed, unregulated entities who find adoption opportunities. However, Delaware’s adoption law has a strict standard for who may work in adoption.

When you are looking for adoptive parents in Delaware, you can either work with the state government or a licensed adoption agency. Choosing which professional you work with will impact your search to find adoptive families in Delaware. For instance, American Adoptions is a fully-licensed national adoption agency, which means we work with prospective adoptive families all across the country. This gives expectant mothers a wider variety of adoptive parents to choose from when they are viewing adoption profiles.
