What are Post Adoption Services

Some families need support services after adoption in order to be successful. Such needs usually change over time, along with the child’s development and the development of the family as a whole. Post-adoption services address the normative issues adoptive families face as well as the more significant problems that can arise.

Services Available to adoptive families through some Consortium Agencies include:

• Information and referral
• Support and discussion groups
• Counseling
• Advocacy
• Assistance with school and community issues
• Respite services
• Intensive supports
