AGAPE of Central Alabama, Inc. - Birmingham Office

In 1977, a group of Christians were stirred to begin something that would enable Christ’s followers to help children. They saw the need in society as well as the desire to help in the hearts of their brothers and sisters. Agape was founded in 1977 in Montgomery, and began operations in 1978 as a “licensed child-placing agency”, licensed by the state of Alabama to provide foster care and adoption services. Agape began serving in the Montgomery area, then later expanded to the Birmingham, Wiregrass and Mobile areas over the next 15 years

Catholic Family Services - Birmingham

The mission of CFS is to provide the highest quality counseling and child welfare services and other related services to people of all faiths in the North Central Alabama area. CFS places primarily healthy infants in adoptive homes. We work with children and families of all racial backgrounds and have always been able to find permanent homes for children in our care. We place children with both married couples and single approved applicants. At CFS we see adoption as a lifelong commitment to a child. It is not a way to get through a tough patch in your marriage, or a means of coping with infertility. It should be a thoughtful decision and, for couples choosing adoption, it should be a mutual decision. CFS is committed to you to insure a smooth transition for your entry into parenthood. Because of the high quality of professional care we offer the birth mother, we believe we in turn offer you a safer, more secure adoption.

Lifeline Children’s Services is a full-service adoption and orphan care ministry, serving families and children in the United States and around the globe.

United Methodist Children's Home - Birmingham Office

The Children’s Home makes a real difference in the lives of children. It has helped transform the lives of thousands of hurting children since 1890. Many of our alumni are now successful adults who are giving back to the communities which gave to them. The need continues as there are hundreds of other children who require our help. By supporting the United Methodist Children’s Home, YOU can make a life changing difference. UMCH provides domestic and international home studies for families or individuals in Alabama. Our ministry also offers birth parent interviews and Birth Parent Relinquishments as well as other legal paperwork needed for in state or ICPC adoptions. Furthermore, UMCH conducts the essential family assessment and continues working with the family to conduct the required home visits and interviews.

Villa Hope

VILLA HOPE was incorporated and licensed as a child placing agency by the State of Alabama in 1988. The agency was founded and is staffed by adoptive parents, social workers, and other child advocates. VILLA HOPE is dedicated to the principle that every child deserves the security of a loving and permanent family and every potential adoptive family deserves the opportunity for timely and comprehensive adoption services. Our Mission: For many families, the decision to adopt is the beginning of a personal journey on the road to parenthood. For others, it is an additional path to continue to grow your current family. Your adoption journey will include decisions regarding what country should I choose, how do I complete USCIS forms, what is a home study and how and why must I do all of this paperwork. For most prospective parents, the question of “When can I bring my child home?” is of utmost importance. VILLA HOPE has staff members who are here to share in this adoption journey with you, to help you complete all necessary paperwork and to assist you in making a difference in the life of a child.
