Firefly Children & Family Alliance has been involved with adoption since our founding (as Children\u2019s Bureau) as an orphanage in 1851, though we\u2019ve expanded to provide many additional services since then. With over 170 years of experience, we know how to provide affordable private adoption services from a trauma informed, attachment-based perspective. Through compassion and care, we seek to make the sometimes difficult private adoption process as smooth as possible for the families and individuals we serve.<\/p>\n

Private Adoption is a term that describes several kinds of adoption; it can include adoption of a child already in the home<\/strong>, like a stepchild, grandchild, relative, or ward under a guardianship plan. Additionally, it can be adoption of an infant<\/strong> by being matched with an expectant birth mother through a private adoption matching agency. Finally, it can include an international adoption.<\/strong> Not included are any adoptions through DCS and foster care.<\/p>\n
