Answers to Common Adoption Questions
The choice of adoption is a positive alternative to an unplanned, unexpected, or unwanted pregnancy. An adoption decision can be difficult to make on your own. Our adoption center will be here to provide support, information and pregnancy related counseling so you can make the best decision for you and your family.
Our agency has 3 local offices. Each local office has experienced adoption caseworkers who will guide you throughout the entire adoption process. Your local adoption caseworker is important to be able to assist with community resources such as: Medicaid, SNAP, Doctor, Hospital, financial services and Transportation. Each adoption caseworker knows Nevada laws regarding adoption which prevents last minute complications. The best part of being local, we can come to you! We can meet you in person (or virtually).

Adoption is a shared gift of love between two families. Ongoing correspondence is definitely an option for you as a birth parent.
