Considering Adoption
Considering adoption for a child you are already parenting requires incredible strength and selflessness. Bright Futures Adoption Center understands that the decision to make an adoption plan for your child, if you choose to do it, will be one that requires courage, love and support. Remember there is no “right” or ‘wrong” decision, as long as it is the one you truly believe will be best for you and your child. Making an adoption plan for your child is not “giving up your baby”, it involves making a thoughtful and loving plan that puts your child’s needs front and center.
