A Quick Guide to A Full Circle Adoptions
Information for Expectant Parents
Considering an adoption plan is one of the most important decisions you may make in your life. We want to make sure you will feel confident about your ultimate decision (to parent or make an adoption plan) both now and in the years to come.
Adoptive Families You Can Choose
Prospective adoptive families in our program complete an extensive ‘home study’ process in which they participate in interviews with a trained home study social worker; they also undergo background checks and other verifications of suitability for adoptive parenthood. Our families participate in adoption education as well so that they can help a child grow up with full knowledge of their adoption, with a clear sense of the caring and love of their birth family and with confidence and self-esteem.

Full Circle provides expert guidance to prospective adoptive families from home study through matching and placement and finalization. Full Circle is a full service agency, providing all the services a family might need to welcome a child through adoption.
