- Description
- As a private nonprofit Ohio Adoption Agency in Cincinnati, you can feel secure with Adoption Connection. After all, we are local adoption experts who have been bringing hearts together to build families since 1943. Adoption is the ultimate expression of love. It is the bringing together of adoptive parents (men and women who want to adopt a baby) and birth parents (pregnant women and their partners who want to place their baby in adoption) who share a common goal - that their baby will be raised in a loving and secure environment. So whether you are working to adopt, or are hoping to place your infant into a loving home, we are very excited you have decided to explore the possibility of adoption with Adoption Connection!
- Adoption Process
- Adoption Process for Birthparents: 1. Contact Adoption Connection at our 24/7 birth parent phone number (513) 236-1440 24/7 and schedule a meeting with an experienced social worker who will support you and provide counseling for you throughout the adoption process. 2. Discuss your options and the adoption process with your social worker. We are here to offer support and non-judgmental counseling. 3. Our experienced adoption social workers closely work with you to explore the kind of adoptive home you are seeking. We will then show you prospective adoptive parent profiles so you can select a family. 4. Meet the family, only if you choose. It is your choice if you want a closed/confidential adoption plan or an open adoption; and you may choose the level of openness that feels right for you. 5. At least 72 hours after the birth of your child the permanent surrender is signed and the infant is discharged from the hospital with the adoptive family. 6. Our support does not end. Adoption Connection social workers are available to give you ongoing support and counseling as needed for the lifetime of the adoption. If you chose to make an open adoption plan, we will continue to be available to facilitate the openness plan; Steps to International Adoption: 1. Call Adoption Connection at 513-489-1616 or 1-866-489-1616. We will mail you information on our agency, application process, fees and adoption policies. 2.
