“Ten years later, and I am now going to school to begin my career as a Medical Practice Manager, and I honestly don’t think I would be in this place if it wasn’t for the support I received from American Adoptions. Finding them has changed my life, and the life of that 5 lb. 6 oz. little girl I delivered that day,” said Brittnee, a birth mother who gave her baby the gift of a family through American Adoptions.

With this information, your social worker will draft a report that will be presented to a judge. The judge will issue a decree of adoption which makes your baby an official legal member of your family!
