Birth Parents
Finding yourself facing an unplanned pregnancy can bring a flood of emotions from uncertainty and fear to hope, and everything in between. Whatever you're feeling, you don't have to navigate it alone, and you don't have to have it all figured out. At Adoption Dreams Come True, we're here to listen, to answer your questions, and to walk beside you without judgment, without pressure, and entirely on your terms.
This is your story and your decision.
We're honored to help in whatever way you need.
The Adoptive Process
The step-by-step journey of planning and completing an adoption placement. For a birth parent, this includes choosing an open, semi-open, or closed adoption plan, selecting and meeting prospective adoptive parents, creating a personalized hospital birth plan, receiving legal and counseling support, and maintaining desired post-placement contact.
At Adoption Dreams Come True, we offer:
Options Counseling
A free, confidential, and completely unbiased space to explore every path available for your pregnancy, whether that means parenting, placing for adoption, or exploring other medical choices. We respect your autonomy and unconditionally support you in whatever decision is right for you body, your life, and your future. Our counselors provide compassionate guidance, neutral information, and a zero-pressure environment so you can feel fully informed and empowered at every step.
Relinquishment
The voluntary legal process by which a birth parent surrenders their parental rights so that a child can be legally adopted. In Colorado, relinquishment involves specific legal procedures, court oversight, and counseling requirements designed to ensure you fully understand your rights, feel supported, and are making an informed decision before final legal papers are signed.
Peer Counseling
One-on-one support provided by someone who has personally walked in your shoes - a birth parent who has previously placed a child for adoption. Peer counseling gives you a safe space to share fears, ask candid questions, and receive emotional validation from someone who deeply understands the birth parent journey firsthand.
