New Horizons Adoption Agency, Inc.
New Horizons places a number of U.S. children per year. New Horizons' program focuses on strong Birthparent(s) involvement in the selection of the adoptive families. The agency cannot guarantee a time period by which a family will receive placement. Families applying for this program must recognize the possibility of never being chosen by a birthparent for an adoptive placement. Average wait ranges from one month to three years. New Horizons also works with many other agencies for the placement of minority children.
Placing a child with an adoptive family is a very loving, sacrificial act. The biological parent(s) who choose this option are putting the interests of the child ahead of their own and providing the best possible future for their child.
