Adoptive families like you deserve short, accurate wait times and financial protection that keeps your adoption budget safe. We’re the only agency that provides both. Your dream of starting a family can become a reality.
The adoption process is an amazing journey, and it starts right here. We believe you deserve complete support during your adoption from start to finish. That’s why we provide more comprehensive adoption services than other professionals — so that you can feel confident and secure in your adoption.
We look forward to meeting you and discussing your needs. There’s a lot that goes into adoption. If you’re thinking about this journey as a way to start or grow your family, you’ll need a lot of support along the way.
Most professionals specialize in one aspect of the process — they might provide home studies, marketing services, or casework support. The difference with American Adoptions is that we can do it all.
We want you to experience the most comprehensive support that puts you in the position to have a successful adoption process. Because of our large staff size, decades of adoption experience, and high adoption success rates, you can have the adoption experience you deserve.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Start by researching the state requirements for new parents. In Kansas, all foster parents must:
- Be 21 years or older
- Maintain financial stability
- Live in a safe and comfortable home
- Pass the home inspection
- Provide enough personal space for a foster child
- Clear a background check (all adults in the house)
- Have a valid driver's license and an insured vehicle
- Finish required foster parent training
- Complete the Home Study Process
Good foster parenting requires your best effort, but not "perfect" parenting. Spend time to learn about the foster care system and the information given to you during training and orientation. Once you have become a licensed foster parent, focus on your foster child's wants, needs, and overall well-being.
To learn more about becoming a foster parent in Kansas, contact your local child-placing agency. These social service agencies are state-approved to match foster children with licensed foster care homes.
Every foster agency provides orientation, where you will receive information about foster care and how to obtain a license. Orientation will help you decide if fostering a child is the right path for you and your family. If you are married or in a relationship, ask yourselves questions before committing to fostering together.
After orientation, your next step is the family assessment process, including the Home Study. A social worker at your local child-placing agency will help you through every step.

I gave birth March 2, 2021. I had the pleasure of working with Rachel. She is absolutely Amazing. Anything I needed help with she was there. I was so stressed out. She made the process so relaxing and easy. From picking the adoptive parents , to my hospital stay. She was always there when, I needed her. She made sure my birth plan was followed, even to the smallest detail. I am absolutely in love with my adoptive family. This Agency was nothing but amazing. I will never forget Rachel, she is Heaven sent. Even after the process. They still call and check up on you. If you are a birth mom. And you wanna do open adoption. This is the agency for you. They are loving , Caring and Attentive to your feelings and needs.

Adoption is complex. American Adoptions did a phenomenal job of walking us through the process, matching us with our son's birth mother, and made sure everything went smoothly. It's an emotionally fraught and legally involved process, but as an adopting family I felt we were in great hands throughout, and I have been happy to see the support services they offered our son's birth parents have been strong as well. Even amidst the rising pandemic, they worked hard to make everything come together, and behind the scenes are still working for us to make sure things are perfectly finalized, that the birth-parents receive counseling and support, and that things are still going smoothly between us and the birth-parents. We have been very happy with their services.

I cant even begin to express how much of a blessing it was to have this agency by my side. They provided more than just support and comfort in one of the hardest times of my life and not only one but also helped me to move forward and seek a better life for myself

We feel so lucky to have found this agency. They were with us every step of the adoption process of our son, Max. Their caring and attentive attitude helped guide us. Adoption is not an easy process, but I felt like this agency held our hand through each step. The process may have been hard, but the end result is the best thing that ever happened to us... our son Max!

American Adoptions truly exceeded our expectations. We felt supported throughout the whole adoption process. The staff is both knowledgeable and friendly. The agency provides education and on going support for both the adoptive families and birth parents. We would recommend A.A time and time again!
