Services We Offer
As a licensed adoption agency, we offer services for both adoptive and birth parents. We have registered social workers available throughout BC to ensure that there is one in or near your community whenever possible. Although the guidelines and standards we follow are the same as the
Ministry For Child and Family Development’s (MCFD), we specialize in domestic (in-BC) infant, and inter-country (child from another country) adoption placements.
Choosing The Adoption Centre
As either a prospective adoptive parent or birth parent you have the choice to work with an adoption agency or MCFD. It is important to be aware of your options because it’s critical that you make the choice that is the best fit for you, which in turn benefits the children.
There are many differences between an agency and MCFD that you may want to explore including:
- The age and needs of the children available
- Types of families available
- Time frames
- Fees (not applicable to birth parents in either situation)
For a description of the types of adoption we facilitate, see types of adoption.
The Adoptive Families Association of BC has developed a list of questions that you may find helpful to ask an adoption agency or MCFD when you are considering working with them.
