This is about you and your baby. You make the decisions about what is right for you. Women we work with feel empowered to consider all options and they ultimately choose the option that is right for them. You determine whatever level of support is right for you, and with Open Arms, you will never feel pressure from us for you to move forward with an adoption plan.

With offices in PA, NJ, DE & NY, we provide local resources to ensure that you have personalized support to include:

1. A local counselor to meet with you to answer your questions about adoption
2. A local counselor to support you at the hospital helping to ensure your needs are met and your privacy is protected
3. Local resources to help you get back on your feet
4. Local adoptive families, should you want to stay in touch

In addition to our free in-person counseling, which is available to you as long as needed, we offer free support and mentor groups for women considering adoption, and for those whose children have already been adopted.

Every woman desires a different level of support and you can decide what is right for you. This is your adoption plan.

Our birth and adoptive parents become a part of our Open Arms family; we are committed to meeting the needs of everyone who works with us.

In Open Adoption, birth and adoptive families maintain direct contact with one another through photos, letters and visits.

Women who choose Semi-Open Adoption stay connected to the adoptive family through the ongoing involvement of Open Arms.

For those women who feel staying in touch may be too emotionally difficult, Confidential Adoption offers the birth parents the opportunity to plan an adoption while maintaining complete privacy and confidentiality throughout the years. But, even down the road in a Confidential Adoption, if a woman desires to reconnect with the Adoptive Family and baby, Open Arms would be happy to assist in this process.
