Corpus Christi Private Domestic Adoption Agencies
When considering adoption in Corpus Christi, working with a licensed and regulated adoption agency ensures the adoption is safe, ethical and results in a successful placement. Because there are complex steps in the adoption process, an agency with experienced professionals is an important resource for a Corpus Christi adoption.
These are the different types of Corpus Christi adoption agencies:
Private Domestic Adoption Agency [We are Ready to Help]
Private domestic adoption in Corpus Christi is the most common type of adoption. This is when a prospective birth mother uses an adoption agency to match with a hopeful adoptive family using the support services of an adoption agency in Corpus Christi to complete a placement.
Luckily, we not only have licensed adoption specialists, but many of us are adoptees, adoptive parents or birth mothers. Because of this first-hand experience with adoption, we understand what our birth mothers and adoptive families are going through.
American Adoptions offers support and services to both prospective birth mothers and adoptive families, including:
For prospective birth mothers
- 24/7 counseling, support and education.
- An adoption plan tailored specifically to every need and expectation for the adoption process.
- A large database of available adoptive families.
- Potential for agency-paid financial assistance for pregnancy-related living expenses.
- A Corpus Christi adoption hospital plan.
- Free legal representation and paid medical expenses.
- Pre-and-Post-Placement contact mediation with the adoptive family.
- And more.
For prospective adoptive families
- An Adoption Planning Questionnaire (APQ) that lays out your expectations for the adoption experience.
- Matching with a prospective birth mother with similar interests, lifestyle choices, beliefs and other personality traits.
- An industry-leading risk-sharing program for financial protection.
- Shorter than normal wait times.
- And more.
We know how personal, emotional and life-changing adoption is. Our goal is to ensure our birth mothers and adoptive families have a safe and smooth Corpus Christi adoption experience.
Take it from Scott Mars, founder of American Adoptions, and an adoptee himself.
“My mom and dad were a couple who weren’t able to become a mom and dad without adoption. Of all people in this world, my mom and dad deserve to be parents. And without adoption, they would not have been able to share their love, share their life, and give someone the life that I had.
“Because of adoption, my life was filled with love and opportunity.” You can watch Scott’s video to see his entire adoption story.
The choice of adoption is never “giving up” on a child, it’s a decision based on love and the desire to give a child a chance to have an amazing life. That makes birth mothers heroic.
Adoption also gives hopeful adoptive parents a chance to live out their dream of growing a family. AJ and Jenna were given that gift through our agency. The support they received from us and the connection they made with their birth mother is something they’ll never forget.
“It’s one of the greatest gifts anybody has given me — to choose me to be a father,” AJ said. “I don’t think we could ever repay her enough… It’s the coolest, most unselfish gift anybody can give you.”
“Every time we talked to someone from American, they were always super friendly and super helpful,” Jenna said. “They never made us feel bad about asking a question I’m sure they had been asked a million times. It just felt natural.”

Foster Care Adoption Agencies in Corpus Christi
Foster care adoption in Corpus Christi is another way for you to grow your family. Foster care differs from a private domestic adoption in many ways, but mainly in that most foster children need a safe and loving home with the ultimate goal of reuniting with their biological parents.
Prospective adoptive parents may also need to be open to fostering older children, a child with special needs or sibling pairs in need of a loving home.
To get more information on foster care adoption and whether a permanent adoption is possible through the foster care system, contact any of these local Corpus Christi foster care agencies.
International Adoption
International adoptions are far less common. Because of the many international laws, this type of adoption takes an experienced international adoption agency and legal professional to handle the complex steps. It’s important to work with a Hague-accredited international agency as well.
Here some international adoption agencies that can provide more information on this type of adoption in Corpus Christi.
