Birth Parents have easy and lasting access (up to 18 years) to their pictures, letters, emails, etc. sent by the adoptive family.
Birth Parent Survey Site
The Birth Parent Survey Site was designed to elicit real, unbiased experiences from women and men that have gone through the difficult and emotional process of placing a child for adoption. You are encouraged to rate your experience with your particular agency or attorney and to give critical and helpful feedback, whether positive or negative so others may benefit from this information when selecting an adoption service provider. Making an adoption plan and placing a child is not easy, and the challenge of this should not be compounded by an unhelpful or unethical agency or attorney
- The site provides a place to research agencies and attorneys and the services they offer
- Learn what agencies/firms are available in your area if proximity is important to you
- Review the experiences of other birth parents with a particular adoption agency/firm
