What does LDS Family Services offer a Birth Mom wanting to place a child for adoption?

Question

I was wondering what LDS FS offers a birth mom for placing her baby for adoption.. What it includes money wise for them? Like if they pay for hosptial or whatever other costs that are involved? Does the birth mom get rent money or any assistant that way? How about counseling? How long? If you have any thing about what they have to offer would love to know... Thanks

Answer 1

Are you LDS?
I  was given up for adoption when I was an infant. It was the most loving and unselfish thing my mother could have ever done for me. I was given such a gift and my life was forever changed. I was able to get a college education and be very successful. My family who adopted me were able to provide me with everything my mother wasn't able to because she was young. The most important thing in adoption is finding a couple who has a strong family, financially secure to offer your child and education and everything else they will ever need, and a house that has love beyond words to give!!!


I always knew I was adopted and every day I am so thankful and feel so blessed for the life she allowed me to have. I can only say that it is a hard thing to do, but I am proof that pure love of a birthmother can open doors for the future for their child.


My husband and I are now in the process of wanting to adopt. We have an amazing life and I want to give back, what was given to me. If I can help you in any way please let me know. I wish you the very best and if you ever want to talk you can contact me [e-mail]
