Open Adoption

At Family to Family we tailor the openness of the adoption to your wishes as the birth mother. We offer open or semi-open adoptions, but will do the type of adoption that you as the birth mother want to do. There is not much difference in open and semi-open adoption.

In both cases you meet the family, exchange non-identifying information and contact each other through our agency with letters and pictures of yourself, your children, the adoptive family, the adopted child, any future children you might have. We consider the adoption to be ‘open’ when you and the adoptive family have exchanged identifying information such as last names, home addresses and have decided to contact each other direct, not through the agency.
