| Starting
an Adopted Family
The choice
to build your family through adoption is a major life decision that,
in most people, causes a myriad of concerns and great anticipation.
Since our lives have been enriched by adoption, we understand
your excitement and anxiety as you begin to build or add to your
family.
We
also understand that your life experience, whether that is a struggle
with infertility, the loss of a child, or the desire to support
children and the community, has brought you to this decision.
We at
Bright Futures can help explain the adoption process, listen to
your concerns, and support you in making an adoption plan, but ultimately
you must choose the type of adotpion that works for you.
At Bright Futures
adopting parents are encouraged to:
-
participate
in the adoption process,
-
get
to know and respect their child’s birth parent(s),
-
understand
the roles and responsibilities of the members of an adoption
triangle,
-
work
with the birth parent(s) and Bright Futures to make an adoption
plan that is in the best interest of the child, and
-
make
adoption a healthy and secure beginning for the child.
