How to Choose a Family

There is no right or wrong way to choose an adoptive family. Some expectant parents are drawn to a family’s values, hobbies, or parenting style, while others look for shared interests or the type of future they envision for their child.

Your Connected Hearts worker can help you review family profiles, answer questions, and explore what is most important to you. If desired, we can also help arrange meetings with prospective adoptive families so you can get to know them better before making a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do your services cost anything?

No. All Connected Hearts pregnancy support and adoption planning services are provided at no cost to expectant parents.

Do I have to be Catholic to receive services?

No. Connected Hearts welcomes and supports individuals of all faiths, beliefs, backgrounds, and family structures. You do not need to be Catholic or have any religious affiliation to receive our services. Our role is to provide compassionate guidance, education, and support so you can make informed decisions that are right for you and your family.

Is it too late to create an adoption plan if my child has already been born?

No. It is never too late to explore adoption. Whether your child is days, weeks, or months old, our team is here to support you and help you understand your options. We will work alongside you to develop a plan that is in the best interest of both you and your child.

Will I regret my decision?

Every person’s experience is unique, and adoption is a deeply personal decision. It is normal to have questions and experience a range of emotions when making any significant life decision.

Many birth parents find peace in knowing they carefully considered their options and made the decision they believed was best for themselves and their child. For those who choose open adoption, maintaining a connection with their child can also provide comfort and reassurance.

Choosing adoption does not mean you love your child any less. For many parents, it is a decision made out of love, care, and a desire to provide the future they envision for their child.

Still Have Questions?

We’re here to listen, answer your questions, and support you without pressure or judgment.
