Birthparent Support
Most Women choose adoption because they want, what they believe is the best option for their child. For most, this is a heart wrenching decision. At Beacon House we respect the choices made by birth families and work diligently to support these choices throughout the adoption process.
BHAS’s Domestic Adoption Program is a full service process that you from the start of an adoption to its completion; including finalization services, emotional support, birth mother outreach, and all services involved in completing a legal adoption. These include:

· Maintaining Confidentiality
· Counseling for Birthparents: Birth Mothers undergo extensive counseling sessions with one of our Social Workers prior to making an adoption plan, before placement, and anywhere in between.
· Personal Caregivers: to help you all you needs: transportation, emergencies, etc.
· 24/7 Support : Birth Mothers have personal access to our Domestic Adoption Coordinator, or another member of our staff 24 hours daily, 7 days a week.
· Post-Adoption Support
· Semi-Open or Closed Adoptions
· African American Adoptions
While Adoption has many benefits for you and your child, making an adoption plan for your child is not an easy choice. It is not a decision to be entered into lightly. It requires time and understanding your options. Deciding what to do about your pregnancy is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Beacon House’s Adoption Coordinator will explain the adoption process and are here to help you any way they can. Call 1-888-987-6300.
