Private Domestic Adoption in El Paso [Work with a Full-Service Adoption Agency]

The most common type of adoption in El Paso is a private domestic adoption where a prospective birth mother works with a domestic adoption agency and matches with a hopeful adoptive family with whom she places her child.

Our agency has helped birth mothers and adoptive family's complete adoptions for more than 30 years and because many of us are adoptees, adoptive parents or birth mothers, we understand the emotions and complexities, but also how life-changing and rewarding adoption can be.

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.

While we have a strong national presence, our local Texas representation gives you added convenience.

Foster Care Adoption Agencies in El Paso

Another option for growing your family through adoption in El Paso is foster care. While different than a domestic adoption in that most foster care children in need of a home tend to be older, have special needs or potentially a sibling pair, you can still experience the joy of adoption.
