If I give up my baby for adoption, will I ever see them again?

You have options when it comes to the type of adoption you choose. A confidential adoption allows for complete privacy and confidentiality. A semi-closed adoption keeps you in contact with your child’s new family through the ongoing involvement of the adoption agency. An open adoption will provide letters and photographs, and visits with the child and family.

With Open Arms, you decide the amount and type of future contact you will have with the child. This is based on your personal desires and there is no right answer as to what type of adoption you should choose.
