A Child's Hope - Adoption Services in North Carolina

Helping Create Families Through Adoption

A Child's Hope offers adoption services for couples and singles who wish to create or expand their families through adoption.

Domestic Adoptions

A Child's Hope offers domestic adoption services for parents who desire help in locating infants available for adoption. Through comprehensive yellow pages advertising in North Carolina and extensive contacts in the medical, legal and counseling community, we locate birthmothers who wish to entrust their children in our care for adoptive placement. To keep total adoption costs lower than the average, we focus on placements between North Carolina couples and North Carolina birthmothers. We also assist couples who wish to locate a child outside the state with advertising in other states.

Independent Adoptions and Quality Adoption Legal Advice

For those couples who have located a child that is available for adoption and who need legal services, our two North Carolina adoption family law attorneys offer assistance with independent adoptions. We also assist out-of-state attorneys and those who have adoption needs in North Carolina – obtaining consents for out-of-state placements and interstate compliance, as well as litigating and negotiating adoption issues. For biographical information on our two North Carolina attorneys see Our Attorneys and Staff.

Home Studies and Preplacement Assessments

Before an agency may place a child for adoption, the prospective adoptive parents must have a completed preplacement assessment, commonly known as a home study. We offer preplacement assessments services. Preplacement assessments generally require four to six weeks to complete. Preplacement assessments are valid for eighteen months. After eighteen months, they must be updated. Postplacement visits and a report to the court are required once a child is placed in a home. We have qualified and experienced social workers available throughout the state to do the pre- and postplacement assessments.
