Adoption and Infertility

Adoption And Infertility provides information to anyone either thinking of placing a child for adoption, or for someone who is trying to expand their family through a pregnancy or through adoption.

There are many different kinds of adoptions. The primary distinctions are between a private adoption or agency adoption, an open adoption or closed adoption, and domestic or international adoption. The most important factor in selecting an agency is that they have met the requirements of your state and are fully licensed to provide you with a full range of professional services.

Many adoptees are interested in understanding more about the adoption process and its potential impact on them and on other adopted persons. A second area of interest to many adoptees involves identifying and locating their birth mother and birth father.

Here you will find information and resources for people who are interested in adopting a child through either a domestic adoption or an international adoption.

For Birth Parents provides information and resources for a birth mother and/or birth father who is thinking of placing a child for adoption or who need help in raising their child.

Infertility is a growing problem in the U.S. The physical and psychological impact of infertility can be devastating to the infertile person and to their partner. It frequently results in anger, depression, anxiety, and feelings of worthlessness. Psychological counseling and adoption are two of the options open to those individuals and couples for whom infertility cannot be overcome.
