Lifetime Adoption Availability During COVID-19

Lifetime Adoption remains 100% available for birth parents, hopeful adoptive parents, and anyone with questions about adoption. We care about you and are here for you!

With the announcement of a national public health emergency and the closure of schools, we are establishing new procedures to continue serving you, effective immediately. We are following CDC advice to protect Lifetime’s staff and our local communities. Meanwhile, we are still able to provide 24-hour help for birth parents and Lifetime’s matched adoptive families. We also maintain regular availability during office hours, by phone nationwide, for current adoptive parents in-waiting, as well as for anyone wanting to learn more about adoption.
