It is very rare in this age of medical technology that we are unaware of medical issues prior to birth, but it can happen. We have families waiting who are prepared for the long-term needs of adopting a child with special needs. It is Lifetime’s policy to find homes for all our children and prevent them from going into the foster care system. In the event a child has drug exposure, we have families waiting who are willing and want to adopt a baby.

We never force a family to take a child home if they don’t feel that a child is meant for them. Birth parents appreciate the fact we have families for their children. In regards to your adoption plan, you would continue to be presented to birth mothers and be matched with a birth mother as soon as possible. There are no additional fees paid by the family.

“Thank you so much for consistently being a place of support and uplifting for us. I cannot tell you how much it has helped listening to the webinars! We have listened to Gina and Rachel’s adoption stories along with a few others. Each one offers several ways of encouragement. We have really made it a priority to sit down together once a week and listen to a webinar together. I think it helps us to open communication about our adoption, listening to how the other person is feeling and thus creating a plan how we can better support each other. Thank you for all of your help throughout this process!”
