Private Domestic Adoptions

TLC Child & Family Services provides adoption home studies to families pursuing domestic adoption and post-placement visits and reports. We provide these services for families adopting a non-foster child for a competitive fee.

Birthparent Program and Infant Adoption

TLC is currently working on establishing a birthparent program and an infant adoption program. We anticipate that these programs will beginby July 2008.

Adoptive Home Studies

For those of you who are ready to proceed with adoption, the home study offers an in-depth exploration of the life-long issues of adoption and its effect on your family's life. Home studies are required to complete the adoption process.

Post-Adoption Services

Adoption does not end when a child enters your home. In fact, it has just begun. Adoptive parents, adoptees and birth parents may need help at any time. At TLC, we recognize that feelings about being adopted, adopting or relinquishing a child do not disappear at the time of the adoption. We work with families requesting assistance and help by referring them to appropriate services and resources after the adoption has finalized.
