Start by calling us today to start the process.

• Contact us 24/7 by calling (877) 754-6207
• A support counselor is available to answer your questions immediately and/or to give you an overview of what our agency can do for you.
• A support counselor will be assigned to you to talk to you about your placement decision. She will begin the intake process so we can determine how we can help you. There are many choices in adoption today. The support counselor will give you those choices and THEN YOU TELL US HOW YOU WANT THINGS TO WORK. Complete the questionnaire on the Contact Us page to get started.

Develop a Plan

• You may help choose the adoptive parents if you would like to or you can have the agency choose. The support counselor can set up a time so that you may talk to the adoptive parents by phone or in person with the support counselor present-you will not be alone. The adoptive parents that we present you with have all had a home study and have been thoroughly screened.
• Your support counselor will be with you throughout the entire process. She will help you arrange medical care and insurance for your pregnancy if needed. She will be your link to the adoptive parents. You can choose to continue to have ongoing communication with the adoptive parents if you would like and your support counselor will help you do that. The coordinator will be a support to you but can arrange for more formal counseling if you are open to it. The support counselor will be available to you 24/7 for whatever needs you have.

During the Birth

• When you go into labor, make sure your support counselor knows. She will contact the adoptive parents and let them know when you are ready for them to come to the hospital. Your support counselor will be available to you throughout your labor and delivery and in some cases can be there with you when you deliver if you want her to be.
• While you are at the hospital you have some more choices. You can choose to keep your baby in your room with you or you can choose to have the baby spend some time or all of his/her hospital stays with the adoptive parents.

After the Birth

• After you have had some time to recover from the delivery your support counselor will assist you in finishing up on any paperwork that is needed to move forward on the adoption.
• Once you go home from the hospital your support counselor will keep in close contact with you to make sure you are doing okay. She can arrange for you to talk to the adoptive parents or to get updates on how the baby is doing.
• Your support counselor can stay in touch with you for as long as you would like. We have many birth mothers that continue to call us years after they have placed a child through our agency. This process is very emotional and it is not unusual for lasting friendships with your support counselor to be formed.

Our birth mothers say that we “became like a loving family” to them during this process.

Post-Placement Services

All For You will continue to pass along pictures and updates that the adoptive family sends in for you or will facilitate a more Open adoption if that is in your plan for as long as you would like.

All For You offers LIFETIME counseling with our agency staff. Even if you have not kept an ongoing relationship with us, you are welcome to call us at any time in your life to receive counseling relating to the placement of your child with an adoptive family.

All For You will keep an agency registry so that reunion with your child when he/she becomes an adult will be easier. As long as you and the adoptive parents keep in touch with the agency to update your contact information we will keep that information on file. When your child contacts the agency to find you, we will first contact you to see what kind of relationship, if at all, that you want with your child. We will give your contact information to your child, only if you want us to.
