Success Story
“It just helps to have someone who knows what’s going on, and is on your side throughout the process."
Adoption is an exciting time for any family considering caring for a child in need of a forever home. At Embrace Alabama Kids, our Adoption Services program offers the guidance and experience of a licensed social worker who is knowledgeable about the many considerations affecting both adoptive families and birth families. We work with both parties to ensure they’re equipped with the knowledge they need and are ready to make a major life decision on behalf of a child being adopted.
We assist adoptive families or individuals in Alabama with domestic or international home studies necessary for the adoptions process. Our ministry also offers birth parent interviews and birth parent relinquishments as well as other legal paperwork needed for in-state or ICPC adoptions. For birth parent consents and interviews, we work closely with attorneys and often adoption agencies outside of the State of Alabama.
To inquire about beginning the home study process or for more information, contact Dana Wilkes at dana.wilkes@embracealkids.org.
Our Adoptions Services program is managed from Auburn but we serve families spanning numerous counties in Alabama.
