Heart of Adoption Alliance, Inc.
At Heart of Adoptions Inc., our primary mission is to create families through adoption. However, we take this one step further by ensuring that all our clients: expectant parents, their children, and hopeful adoptive families, are treated as individuals with unique needs, situations, and emotions. We believe in flexibility, respect, and confidentiality.
In order to complete this mission we believe in employing a staff that is passionate about all aspects of adoption. From our office manager greeting everyone entering the front door, to the case managers who work so closely with birth mothers to help with prenatal care and other support needs, to the attorney conducting everything from consents to finalization, you will be surrounded with a support staff of dedicated professionals who believe in dignity and respect, regardless of the situation or personal choices. We strive to make every adoption experience the best it can be.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Many adults are eligible to become foster parents in their state but do not always realize it. Each state in the U.S. has regulations and requirements for licensing foster parents. Florida does not require parents to own a large home or quit their jobs and become stay-at-home parents. Florida foster parents must:
- Be 21 years of age or older
- Prove good health and ability to care for a child
- Maintain a stable income
- Pass a background screening
- Finish 30 hours of foster parent training
- Complete a Home Study
The required training course is free to aspiring foster parents. It helps parents learn how to foster children and become licensed to provide foster care in Florida.

I founded this agency several decades ago, and it has worked tirelessly to help special-needs and foster care children find permanency through adoption. It also has free lifetime support programs for birth parents, no matter who they used for adoption. This is an often underserved population. Under the leadership of Dr. Brigette Schupay, it is now soaring to new heights.
